"Separate and Edit" - A Handy Plugin for Blender
Blender users, here's a simple tool that can make your work in Edit Mode more efficient - the "Separate and Edit" plugin. This plugin, which is compatible with Blender version 2.91.0 and later, takes the standard operation of the 'P' key a step further.
When you press 'P' in Blender's base functionality, it separates your selected mesh element into a new object. But with the "Separate and Edit" plugin, after separating the selected mesh element, it automatically sets the new object as active and switches to its Edit Mode. This allows you to work continuously, focusing on your creativity rather than the manual operations.
Whether you're dealing with vertices, edges, or faces, this plugin simplifies your workflow. And for those who like to use hotkeys, you can assign a hotkey for the "Separate and Edit" operation through the hotkey settings menu in Blender. Just look for the command "Separate and Edit".
For those who prefer using hotkeys, this plugin allows you to assign your preferred hotkey for the "Separate and Edit" operation via Blender's hotkey settings menu. Simply search for the command "Separate and Edit".
The "Separate and Edit" plugin is available for free download. It's a small contribution from a Blender user to the Blender community, aiming to make 3D modeling in Blender a little bit more convenient.
