DmrVBM Blender ‐ Export Queues

Export Queues

This panel is used to design exports to execute ahead of time, so that files can be updated with one click. The queue field on the export dialog is used to update queue parameters.

An example of use would be creating a queue group for common characters, one for each character's rig, another group for enemies, and another for a collection that uses common shapes.

Top Bar

The top bar contains view options and buttons to organize.

• Show Paths reveals filepaths below each queue entry.
• Group Indices swaps group colors for group numbers.
• Relative Paths and Absolute Paths sets all queue paths to relative (to Blender file) and absolute respectively.
• The ★ Export Queues button executes all enabled export queues.
  • The buttons to the right executes all enabled queues for the button's group.
• The Select/Deselect button toggles the enabled state of all queues.
  • The buttons to the right toggles the enabled state for the button's group.
