MatCap is a way to simulate material and ambient lighting settings in a scene with only one single image. Most often, matcaps are used to control an object shape when sculpting, but they are good for working with shapes in any kind of modeling.
When writing add-ons for Blender, it is important to place UI elements – buttons, fields, switches, etc., so that the user can easily find them and have convenient access to them. Blender provides to add-on developers the following areas to place their custom UI:
To distribute objects with Blender Geometry Nodes, the “Distribute Points on Faces” node is usually used. It produces a set of points randomly scattered over the surface of the mesh polygons. Next, the necessary objects are located at these points. In common case, these points are located randomly, and the objects located on them can intersect with each other if the points are close. However, we can configure the nodes so that the meshes located on the points will not intersect.

In order to mix two normal or bump maps in Blender shader so that they overlap as required, we need to correctly connect their nodes in the Node Editor.
With Blender Geometry Nodes, we can quickly turn an ordinary font into an interesting font with the spectacular border. The main assistant in creating such a font will be the Extrude node.
To quickly associate any variable mesh parameter with animation frames, we just need to type #frame in the parameter field. Then, when scrolling the animation timeline, the value of this parameter will be equal to the current frame number.

In the Blender Python API, a collection does not have a direct pointer to its parent collection. However, we can get the parent collection by searching through the list of children of each collection in the scene until we find the current one.
