Repair Sliders
N Panel > GUI Tab > Panel Header Menu > Repair Sliders
Use this when links break after renaming an object, shape key, bone, or similar target item.
Even if a slider still looks like it works after renaming, the saved connection info may still point to the old name. That can cause problems later, so run this after renaming.
This applies to Slider, Joystick, and Dual Controller.
What happens when you run it
- If the saved connection info is outdated, it updates it to match the current state
- If a connection is broken but the original target still exists, it reconnects it
- If there are multiple possible matches, choose the correct one from the list and click OK
How to read the dialog
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
| All targets OK | No issues found |
| Repaired | Reconnected successfully |
| Errors | Could not be fixed automatically. The target was deleted, or multiple matches were found and one must be chosen |
Cases it cannot fix
- The object or bone was deleted
- The shape key was deleted
- The saved path can no longer be found
In that case, set the connection again manually.
Reset All Transforms
N Panel > GUI Tab > Panel Header Menu > Reset All Transforms
Resets all slider-related bone transforms (location, rotation, scale), wire widths, color palettes, and constraint influence to their default values. This is an emergency rescue for when you cannot exit a Quick View intermediate state.
Cleanup All
N Panel > GUI Tab > Panel Header Menu > Cleanup All
Deletes all data generated by GUI Slider at once: drivers, keyframes, bones, widget meshes, and BoneCollections. A confirmation dialog is shown before execution.
Note
Bones and collections created by Dual Controller are protected and are not deleted.
Preferences
Configure in Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > GUI Slider.
