Camera Clipping Assistant

This addon dynamically adapts the view/camera/volumetrics clipping distances based on object selection and distance to the object.

There are also a couple of options to change the factors used for the clipping calculation and a option to apply the clipping to your “Active Camera” and not only the viewport clipping.

thanx a lot it will prevent me getting lost in large scenes

@Arkoprobho_Gupta i made some improvements, its now working for selected objects instead of only the active one and if you have 2 objects that are far apart it will set the clipping distance by taking that distance into account.

Volumetrics clipping distances have been added to the addon. There is a toggle option in the user preferences (enabled by default)

happy blending!

Version 2.0.3 seems to be upcoming, doesn’t it?

nothing noteworthy to release at the moment, i only adjusted the default view distances a bit.

Thanks for the really helpful addon. I think that this feature should be applied to the 3d viewport by default! For the urban scene I am working on, I’m not seeing much of a performance hit, if at all so good job :+1:

I made a new release with some bug fixes which should improve the reliability, let me know if you encounter any issues with this release.
