Hi, thank you, for using my Add-on.

You can install the Add-on by going to ‘Edit’ – ‘Preferences’ – ‘Install’ and select the Python File from your disc. After installing, search for it in the list, activate it with the checkbox and save the preferences. This add-on is created for Blender versions higher than 2.8. 

Usage

You can find the Add-on in object mode as a panel in the n-menue of the 3D-View.

Only objects with a mesh included are considers.
