Usage

Object Sorting by Type

Booleans // Empties

Selecting either button option will grab all objects by selected type, and move them into a new collection for ease of access and outliner sorting.

The new collection name will either be “Darrow_Booleans” or “Darrow_Empties”

Note

This tools will work recursively! New collections will not be created, objects will be added to the existing collection after first run.

Note

Additional type sorting will be added soon! If you have any suggestions please contact me at, support@darrow.tools.
