Rig Tools and Rigify tabs

[Derek Phifer]

I’m following along with the video, and at the 14:15 mark, he uses the “Rig Tools” tab on the sidebar. How do I add that tab and the “Rigify” tab to my sidebar?

The Rig Tools is part of this Addon:

and Rigify is an Addon that comes shipped with Blender:

Hey @cookiemonster,

Cool name!

Rig tools is the bone widget add-on Wayne shows in the Custom Bone Shapes Lesson. The link to the download is in the lesson description. I’ll include it HERE.

Rigify is another free add-on, and ships with Blender, you just need to enable it in the preferences.

Happy rigging!

Thank you both so much! The only thing now is the Rigify tab still won’t show even though I enabled the add-on.  Any tips?

I believe you have to be in Edit Mode on your Armature for the Rigify Tab to show up in the N-Panel.

Hey Cookie Monster,
You won’t need the rigify add-on for anything in this course.
But I’m glad you got the BoneWidget add-on sorted.  And I hope it saves you a bunch of time.

Thanks for the help, everyone!
