What is the Bend Modifier?

Bend Modifier

The Bend Modifier is a Blender modifier designed to provide an intuitive alternative to Blender’s built-in option.

Blender’s built-in Simple Deform offers a bend mode, but it’s awkward as it requires ‘Empty’ objects for placement and takes some time to set up. This add-on gives you a dedicated Bend Modifier asset that’s:

  1. Easier to use,

  2. Gizmo-driven,

  3. Non-destructive,

  4. Fully compatible with other modifiers, and

  5. Kind to your UVs.

How It Works

Follow the How to Use guide. Essentially:

  1. Save the Bend Modifier .blend file to Your Asset Library - Set the .blend file asset directory to use it in any Blender project under Edit -> Preferences -> File Paths.

  2. Add the Modifier: Select an object and go to Deform - Bend from the modifier panel.

  3. Fine-Tune the modifier’s :parameters.
