Note: Make sure these options are enabled:
Quick Shortcuts in Right-Click Menu (if using right-click)
Quick Shortcuts in Pie Menu (if using pie menu)
</aside>
Step 2: Add a Quick Shortcut (Pin an Add-on)
Adding a Quick Shortcut means pinning the Add-on you want:
- In the Add-on Preferences, go to Tab Group Management
- You will see your Tab-groups
- Find the Add-on/Tab you want to pin (e.g., “Boxcutter”, “Hard Ops”)
- Notice the pin icon 📌 next to the Add-on name
- Click the pin icon — it will switch to a “pinned” state
Note: You must first create a Tab-group and add Add-ons into it
before you can pin them.
Step 3: Use Your Quick Shortcuts
Once pinned, you can access them instantly:
- If using Right-Click Menu:
- Right-click in the 3D Viewport
- You’ll see a menu called “SUPERTABs Quick Shortcuts”
- Hover over it to reveal your pinned Add-ons
- Click to open the Add-on directly
- If using Pie Menu Hotkey:
- Press your assigned hotkey in the 3D Viewport (e.g., F8)
- A pie menu will appear
- Look for the area labeled “Quick Shortcuts”
- Your pinned Add-ons will appear as clickable buttons
Step 4: Manage or Remove Quick Shortcuts
