Cycle through a vertices of a mesh or curve in edit mode Blender

Blender Vertex Traversal

I asked this on the blender stack exchange and decided to try building it myself: https://blender.stackexchange.com/q/249709/70346

Sometimes you are working with a string or path and you want to conveniently select the next or previous vertex. This plugin works by picking the next or previous available vertex in a mesh during edit mode.

Requirements

Blender 3.0.0+ (Tested in LTS)

Installation

1. Download Latest Release https://github.com/dancrew32/blender_vertex_traversal/archive/refs/tags/v1_2.zip
2. Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > Install > blender_vertex_traversal-1_2.zip
3. Enable "Vertex Traversal" add-on.
4. Observe "Vertex Traversal" panel in 3D View during Edit Mode (see usage).

Usage

1. Select an object and change to edit mode.
2. Open the "Vertex Traversal" panel
3. Select Next or Prev to cycle through the vertices (aka vertex.prev or vertex.next)
4. Pro-tip: Right click "Prev Vertex" and "Next Vertex" then save them to Quick Favorites. Then hit Q while editing for a convenient way to select the next and previous vertices!
