Due to an annoying change in the way the search function works in Blender post-2.9, all operators now need to be attached to a menu somewhere in the interface to be visible in the search bar. You can change this however, if you go into Edit - Preferences, then in the Interface section tick 'Developer Extras'. The operator should be discoverable in the search function again.

To your knowledge, is there any reason why this wouldn't work in Blender 2.92.0? I can find and call the class in the search but the properties are not showing up. Any thoughts?

@@jamesfield8023 I have followed along on 2.92 and as long as I run it from the search (and not from the script) the properties box is showing up.

I'm a programmer who is dabbling in 3d and the idea of writing scripts is so much more appealing to me than pushing and pulling blocks all over the place manually. Thanks for this!

Me, a day after a Codacademy 5 hour tkinter crash course on 1,5 playback speed: "Lovely 45 minutes"

I'm a programmer. Best video for both non-programmers and programmers. Very clean and crisp.

This (and Intro To Coding) are the first videos I've ever seen that made me feel like I could actually wrap my head around this stuff- thank you SO much! I've watched so many of these and it all makes sense, then suddenly it feels like this person jumped ahead like 3 steps and I get lost. That said- probably a bad omen, but I'm stuck on the very first step?? I type "import" in the text editor and the syntax highlights it red. I've watched the first bit of this video 3 times and I legitimately don't know what I could have messed up? Do I need to have installed certain modules prior or something? If anyone has any thoughts, I would love to hear them!

Explained in a way that people with no python background can understand. Great work.

Thanks for making this. I've been putting off learning Blender's API because there were no good tutorials before this one. I always struggle to learn from documentation. This is way better

Finally a coding tutorial. Always wanted to learn to code thans Curtis. I'll defently follow along with it. :D

I watched scripting for series artists, but it requires a good understanding of phyton, and a pre-existing minde set for coding, your tutorial explains the code, more from the perspective of a more visual person, which helped me a lot to understand bpy better. It's just like in the video on the blendernest with visually learned math, for me that's how I learn the fastest. I hope for a video series of this type :)

as someone that understands the python side but not the blender side, I have to say this is the best API Tutorial I have ever seen not just blender but like of any API. fantastic job!

"Def execute self. Return FINISHED", this code is metal as fuck. Curtis mathcore album title leaked?

For me as an advanced python programmer, the content and speed is really nice.

This was a great introduction for me. It was very clear with simple examples that I could understand. You zoomed into areas of interest so that I could actually read your screen. And you tied it all together so that I could install it for future use. Very professionally done. Thank you!

Magnificent, Curtis! The Intro and the complete video cleared up a lot of questions I had about coding. Thanks!

This is one of the best Python for Blender tutorials on the web. Please make more intermediate to advanced tutorials like that. Thank you.

The way you are able to identify smaller details and relay the information to your viewers is incredible. You even went into the minor stuff that someone new to python programming needed to know, not just blender related details. You have my respect!

dude this is really amazing, thanks a lot. coming with a python background it's been a bliss to understand what you're explaining, and also you're giving the intro to coding to people who are not familiarised with logic yet. thanks for making this content

One of the best tutorials I have ever watched, code can be so dry to learn but somehow your clarity and superb teaching style makes it interesting, you would make a brilliant teacher, which of course you are here, new sub for sure thanks pal

Wow, this tutorial is of amazing quality, out of this world. I've seen quite some tutorials for coding in Blender, and this video made me understand much more. Usually I find Curtis video way to fast, but this was perfect.

This video was so helpful in understanding scripting in a simple fashion. You did a great job with the descriptions of the complex parts of the code!

I wish I could give this video multiple likes! It's so informative, clear, and moves through content at the perfect pace. Exciting stuff. Thank you for creating this and sharing your knowledge!

Very helpful introduction to python in Blender. This presentation was a tipping point to me. From now on I will see and use Blender on very new and expandable ways. Thank you Curtis!

I had been searching for this for a long time and finally got it. Thank you so much for preparing such a workshop video 🙏👏👏👏

I had been searching for a better tutorial on this topic and this is the best I can say. Please make more videos on this topic explaining deeper. Thanks a lot❤️

I have to just reiterate what other have said already: this is a well described and comprehensive tutorial. Great work! Thank you.

BRILLIANT! You packed so many things in this tutorial with such clarity... By far the best introductory tutorial on this topic I have seen so far. Thanks

This tutorial explained everything other leave out, easy to follow and a lot of great information on Blender Python scripts.

I followed along typing it out, screwing around with what the code could do. Left with a greater understanding. Thank you so much for making this and explaining each step and why it works!

Great tutorial. Good pacing and solid explanation of each element. I like your approach of actually understanding each element, instead of just learning how to use it. Thanks!

Really, really nice explanation. The only thing is that Euler is pronounced "oiler". Everyone gets that wrong at first but the dude absolutely rocked so he's worth the tricky name.

Fantastic tutorial, pace is perfect, just what I needed. Thank you!

Superb tutorial. Beautifully and comprehensively explained and demonstrated. You must be up for tutor of the decade. Thank you.

This is a very good demonstration as it doesn't assume anything and goes through the steps in real time, unlike others that edit out and cut and paste snippetssnippets this shows the whole process as it is typed. I find this way far easier to follow and I am not second guessing where the code came from. All in all one of the best coding videos for Blender, including ones I have bought. Curtis is a natural teacher and this video show that clearly. Thanks Curtis!

Absolutely excellent introduction, Curtis!!

Thank you so much for this tutorial! It's super clear and easy to understand, especially for a Py dev. I highly recommend, as Curtis said, to dive a little bit into Python basics, at least data types, functions and basic oop to have a wayy better time following the explanation.

Thanks for the theme you really dialed in the dark color of the floor ...awesome... been trying to figure that one out

Excellent primer. Thanks Curtis.

clear, to the point and well explained! Keep up the excellent work! very informative

Man thanks a lot for the video! You got my subscription and like! I love how dense the video is, by saying that I mean how much useful information it has and no "water" whatsoever!

Thank you for the wonderful tutorial! Could you also explain the different bpy parts: data, context, ops and so on and what they mean and how and when to use them?

@@fakecubed I did end up writing some stuff for personal use but never really finished it. I think at that time I wanted to write an addon that would bake with transparency support in cycles by baking using the usual manual process of baking twice, once with a emission material as the alpha then combining the images. Another time I tried to write an addon that would create autosave backup texures from texture paint based on a few criteria, similar to the blender file autosave. In the end I got too confused with the context stuff and never finished either one of these.
