I need a super simple Blender addon that hides all objects based on if their name includes a certain string.

Basically a text box and a button.

So I could type in "collision", click the button, and if there are any objects, which have the string "collision" in their name, they get hidden.

Use case: large asset library in a single Blender file with separate collision meshes for most objects. For batch exporting everything has to be made visible, but after batch exporting, I wanna make the collision meshes hidden again.

Could someone code up a "hide by name" Blender addon for me? :)

  • Hi gulagkulak. Your question is off-topic here as we aren't here to produce code for you! See: https://blender.stackexchange.com/help/dont-ask – John Eason Sep 25 '23 at 14:12
  • What have you tried and where did you get stuck? – Harry McKenzie Sep 25 '23 at 14:29
  • I can't find the function to hide objects. – gulagkulak Sep 26 '23 at 01:26
  • @JohnEason im a bit confused on what is considered off-topic. is this only applicable to coding or also this thread where a similar job-like structured question is made? – Harry McKenzie Sep 26 '23 at 06:01
  • @HarryMcKenzie I assumed from his question that gulagkulak was asking for someone to code a complete addon for him as he hadn't made any attempt to write one himself. The comments to the question that you link to are just suggesting ways to solve a problem which is fine. – John Eason Sep 26 '23 at 08:26
