Instructions
- for best results:
- Enable the addon in the user preferences addons > add_curve section
- Select the object you want to grow Ivy on.
- Enter Edit mode & select a vert that you want the Ivy to spawn from.
- Snap the cursor to the selected vert.
- Enter Object Mode & with the object selected:
- Shift/A menu Add_Curve/Ivy_Gen
- This will generate your initial Ivy Curve & Leaves.
- From here you can access the Ivy menu in the toolbar.
- I suggest to make small changes & then press update ivy.
Interface/Menu Overview

- The addon interface is then found in the Tools panel.
Known Issues
