A list of basic much needed things for UI.

  1. Add "origin to geometry" to right click context menu for collection instances. As of now, origin for instances always pops in at 0,0,0.
  2. Selecting collection in one click (Shift+Ctl+Click) or similar. Right now it's Shift+G -> Collection, very inconvenient when you need to quickly select collections and move the around like single objects.
  3. Autoscroll to viewport selected object in Outliner. Any object or collection selected in a viewport should automatically be scrolled to in Outliner.
  4. Light linking to allow exclusion/inclusion of object for each light source. This is a long time must have, especially for those using Blender for Archviz.
  5. Add scroll to addon tabs or let it be organized, it's a nightmare when many addons are enabled they turn into unreadable little tabs you have to click though to find the one you need. Maybe place them horizontally at least so titles can be visible.

Please divide it to separate proposals. So ppl can discuss em independently.

The last 3 have been reported and voted a lot here already. Which shows.. they need to be done!

* @Andres Stephens - Trinumedia * and #3 isn't a UI request as stated in the title

Draise

* @-L0Lock- * It's a UX request with a feature set in the UI. The line is a little blurry, but yes.. it is more UX.

I would say that #3 is better as an optional key toggle. I don't like the idea of "Should automatically scroll". That way outliner will be moving all the time up and down. So I vote for a key to "refresh" the outliner only if you want it to.

* @Ignasi Vidal * Possible, but should definitely be an option.

And also avoid the (many) duplicated requests
