Convenience tool to work with 3D typography in Blender and Cinema4D.

The readme is at the moment for development only. Install as you would normally install an addon.

get bpy python working by:

$HOME/git/tools/blender_git/build_linux_v4.1/bin/4.1/python/bin/python3.11 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install bpy

to install mathutils, this was necessary for me:

sudo xbps-install -Sy python3.11-devel
CFLAGS=$(python3.11-config --cflags) LDFLAGS=$(python3.11-config --ldflags) pip install mathutils

install addon:

cd <root directory>
ln -s $(pwd) $HOME/git/tools/blender_git/build_linux_v4.1/bin/4.1/scripts/addons/abc3d

get blender addon path:

bpy.utils.script_paths()

then check it for the addons directory

addons dir:

~/git/tools/blender_git/build_linux_v4.1/bin/4.1/scripts/addons/

addon data:

~/.config/blender/4.1/datafiles

reload addon in blender:

F3 -> "reload scripts"
