Compatibility

The addon has been tested and confirmed to work on Windows, Linux and macOS.

NOTE Blender 4.0 introduced changes to the structure of .blend files. Once a file is saved with Blender 4.0, you will only be able to open it with Blender 3.6 and newer. That's why settings from Blender 4.0 are incompatible with versions earlier than 3.6. However, once your settings are saved with 4.0, you can get rid of any older instances of Blender!

NOTE The addon does not support portable versions of Blender where the config files are stored in the same directory as Blender.
