Text Helper 2.0.0

Requires Blender 5.2+.

Highlights

  • Multi-line character limit: default 20,000 characters; configurable in add-on preferences (256–50,000, Blender hard cap 50,000). N-panel sidebar shows current / limit.
  • Extension platform readiness: lazy undo/redo handler registration; consistent text-limit enforcement for horizontal and vertical text; official blender --command extension build packaging.
  • Add Text operator creates FONT curves via low-level API (no bpy.ops.object.text_add wrapper).
  • Manifest: extension tag set to User Interface.

  • Viewport header toolbar (formatting, font/weight popovers, spacing sliders)
  • Font search with pinyin/kana helpers, favorites, filters, async glyph checks
  • HUD inline slider editing, theme-aware colors, multi-select batch editing
  • i18n: Japanese and Traditional Chinese UI; operator tooltip translation fixes
  • Font picker performance, Bfont handling, weight grouping, and many bug fixes
