Explain
Let BlendAI explain you any setting, operator, or node in Blender. This is a powerful feature to get help with Blender’s vast amount of features and settings, even for the most experienced users.
How it Works
Simply right-click on what you wanna know more of and choose Explain from the context menu. BlendAI will then provide you with a detailed explanation of the property and its use cases. For explaining nodes, select it before opening the context menu.
Tip
When holding Shift while clicking Explain, BlendAI will answer in the Chat Popup.
You can reply to the explanation as usual to ask further questions or get more information.
Model
BlendAI’s Explain feature is powered by OpenAI. The processing happens on their servers. The model used is based on the quality settings in the General Settings.

Limitations
The explain feature is very helpful but has some limitations:
BlendAI can make mistakes: Just like when chatting, BlendAI can make mistakes when explaining things. Consider checking important information.
New features: BlendAI may not know about the latest features in Blender and may not be able to explain them correctly. Use the Blender manual or other sources for the latest information.
Complex Operators: Some operators come in many different configurations, which can lead to BlendAI telling you about internal settings that may not be useful for you.
Composition nodes: Composition nodes are not supported yet but will be added in the future.
