Version 1.1.30

Released: February 1, 2026

This is the latest stable release of the Instance Wrangler addon. This version provides a complete toolkit for advanced instance and transform management directly in the 3D Viewport.

Key Features

Multi Transform

  • Precisely edit Position, Rotation, and Scale for multiple objects at once using an intuitive, axis-driven grid.

  • Use Standard Mode for simple absolute or relative changes to each object.

  • Use the powerful Active Leads Mode to treat the active object as a “fake parent,” allowing you to transform an entire selection as a single, cohesive group.

Advanced Copy

  • Merged Copy: Creates a single, clean, joined mesh from a diverse selection of objects, with advanced control over the final pivot point and parenting.

  • Linked Copy: Creates new linked duplicates with powerful options for offsetting and preserving or clearing parent-child hierarchies.

  • Unlinked Copy: Creates independent copies (Shift+D style) while utilizing the full suite of placement and hierarchy options.

  • Apply Multi-Transform: Advanced Copy can directly utilize the Multi Transform values for positioning and scaling new copies.

  • Skip Active: Lets you use the active object as a pivot reference without duplicating it in the final result.

Instance Management

  • A comprehensive suite of tools for managing linked duplicates:

  • Modifier Sync: Sync modifier stacks from a leader object to its instances, either globally or limited to a selection.

  • Apply Modifiers: A robust tool that bakes modifiers by converting objects to meshes, while intelligently handling instance groups.

  • Apply Transforms: Solves a core Blender limitation by allowing you to apply transforms to instanced objects without breaking their data links.

  • Link/Unlink Tools: Includes a powerful Link Selected operator that can convert object types on the fly, and two unlinking operators (Make Single User and Make Group Unique) for breaking links individually or as a group.

Data Cycler

  • Rapidly audition different assets or LODs in-place with the Cycle Data (Next/Prev) and Randomize Data tools.

  • Use the Filter field to instantly narrow down the list of available data-blocks to cycle through.
