The Blender API provides a set of simple property types described in bpy.props (IntProperty, BoolProperty, etc.). But the basic types are not always enough, sometimes we need more complex ones. The Blender API allows to group simple properties to make complex properties.
Let’s consider such complex property creation and make the 3×3 matrix property as an example.
To get current Blender version number through the Python API we need to execute the following command:
|
1 2 3 |
bpy.app.version # (2, 81, 16) |
or
|
1 2 3 |
bpy.app.version_string # '2.81 (sub 16)' |

Blender add-on Wire (для 2.8x) updated to version 1.1.0.
Blender add-on for automatically finding and removing duplicates of materials from the scene.
The Blender 2.80 API provides the ability to draw in a viewport (3D Viewport) using the “gpu” module.
As an example let’s draw a simple coordinate system widget in the center of the scene, consisting of three lines with different colors.
Render starts in a new window in Blender 2.81 by default. And there is no more render display mode settings in the “Render” menu. These settings were moved into the “Preferences”. To configure render execution window – open the “Preferences” window, press the “Interface” button and in the “Temporary Windows” configure the “Render In” parameter as you need.
The Blender 2.81a release is enabled for downloading on the official Blender site.
