The Viewport Object Finder is the essential productivity addon for every Blender artist. If your scene has 10 objects or 10,000, finding the right one should take seconds, not minutes. This addon makes that possible.

Press Shift + F, start typing, and instantly see every matching object in your scene.
It’s lightning-fast, intuitive, and goes far beyond a simple search, it’s a complete object management system built for professionals.

🎯 Core Features
🔍 Instant Live Search
Just hit Shift + F. Type any part of an object name and watch results appear in real time — case-insensitive, partial-match friendly, and blazing fast.
Type cam and instantly find Camera_001, Character_Camera, or main_cam_rig.

🎚 Smart Type Filtering
Quickly isolate Meshes, Curves, Cameras, Lights, Empties, Armatures, Lattices, or Grease Pencil objects.
Combine with live search for precision results.
