Viewport Tool Header consolidates vital transforms, object alignment, Boolean operations, and mesh modeling tools into a single, compact, and toggle-expandable bar. Designed to work harmoniously with default Blender tools, it maximizes vertical workspace by reducing the need to keep the Sidebar (N-panel) constantly open.

Key Capabilities
- Dynamic Multi-Mode Toolsets: Cycle seamlessly through 4 distinct workflow layouts using the adjacent Down/Up navigation arrows:
- 🔸 Transform Set (Set 1): High-precision inline coordinates for Location, Rotation, Scale, and Dimensions.
- 🔸 Alignment Set (Set 2): Quick alignment and spacing tools to align objects along X, Y, Z, or all axes, plus a dedicated Distribute tool.
- 🔸 BoolTools Integration (Set 3): Fast access to Auto Boolean and Brush Boolean operations (Difference, Union, Intersect, Slice) using Blender's built-in BoolTool addon.
- 🔸 LoopTools Integration (Set 4): Edit-mode specific tools for mesh manipulation (Circle, Curve, Relax, Space, Bridge, Loft, Flatten, Gstretch) via Blender's LoopTools addon.
- Smart Space Optimization: All property fields and operators start fully collapsed by default (
default=False), keeping your viewport clean and uncluttered. Expand only what you need.
- Master Toggles: Every toolset includes a master toggle button (e.g., "Transform", "Alignment") to quickly expand or collapse all sub-groups simultaneously.
- Context-Aware Safety Alerts: Automatically detects if dependent addons (like BoolTool or LoopTools) are enabled. If disabled, it displays a non-intrusive alert notification requesting activation.
- BlenderKit Integration: Configured to automatically center-align in the viewport header and gracefully hand over priority to BlenderKit's search bar based on your preferences.
