BLEND-MX (Blender Logitech Enhanced Navigation & Design) is a Logi Actions SDK custom plugin for Blender.
BLEND-MX is a custom Logi Actions SDK plugin designed to seamlessly integrate the Logitech MX Creative Console, MX Master 4 mouse, and the on-screen Actions Ring overlay with Blender, the world’s leading open-source 3D creation suite.
Key Features:
- Context-Aware Controls: BLEND-MX dynamically adapts the MX Creative Console’s dialpad, keypad, and the MX Master 4’s buttons and wheels to the active Blender workspace (e.g., Modeling, Sculpting, UV Editing, Compositing, Video Editing).
- Actions Ring Overlay Integration: The on-screen Actions Ring provides instant visual feedback and access to contextually relevant tools, streamlining navigation and reducing cognitive load.
- Haptic Feedback: The MX Master 4’s advanced haptic engine delivers tactile confirmation for critical actions (e.g., snapping, mode switches, completion of renders), enhancing precision and reducing errors.
- Customizable Presets and Icon Packs: Users can select from professionally designed presets and icon packs, or create their own, ensuring a personalized and visually coherent workflow.
- Seamless Device Switching: BLEND-MX supports multi-device environments, allowing users to switch between desktop, laptop, and cloud-based Blender instances without losing their custom configurations.
- API-Level Integration: Unlike legacy shortcut profiles, BLEND-MX communicates directly with Blender’s Python API, enabling robust, bi-directional control and eliminating modifier key compatibility issues on macOS and Windows.
- Automated Workflow Actions: The plugin supports macro recording, batch operations, and Smart Actions, enabling users to automate repetitive tasks and focus on creative problem-solving.
- Cross-Platform Support: BLEND-MX is fully compatible with Windows 10+, macOS 13+, and all major Blender versions from 3.0 onward, including the latest 5.x series.
