Script Editing Workspace with essential dev add-ons included

Script Editing

A script editing workspace for the Blender Text Editor

Tutorial:

Install:

  • Download: Code - Download Zip
  • Unzip
  • Rename the folder inside the zip to Script_Editing - remove ‘-main’
  • Copy the folder into: C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.90\2.90\scripts\startup\bl_app_templates_system
  • Start Blender.
  • In the Welcome pop-up select ‘Script Editing’.
  • In the File menu - Defaults - Load Factory Settings(this is the only way to execute the init file in the workspace template).

The UI should now look different and the add-ons should be installed and enabled.
