Bweight

Overview

Keyboard-driven weight painting — smooth/sharpen and grow/shrink the active vertex group's weights without leaving the brush, plus scoped auto-normalize across selected bones.

UI Location

Weight Paint mode → keymap-driven, no panel.

Features

  • Smooth / sharpen: Ctrl+Shift+= / Ctrl+Shift+- blur or sharpen weights on the active vertex group.
  • Grow / shrink: Ctrl+= / Ctrl+- expand or contract the weighted region.
  • Ctrl-inverted weight gradient: Holding Ctrl while painting inverts the gradient direction.
  • Scoped auto-normalize: Normalizes weights across the selected bones/vertex groups only, instead of all groups on the mesh.

Usage

  1. Enter Weight Paint mode on a mesh with an active vertex group.
  2. Use the smooth/sharpen and grow/shrink hotkeys to adjust weights interactively.
  3. Enable auto-normalize scoping when working with a specific bone selection to avoid disturbing unrelated groups.
