This also let’s you collect all the Particle Flow nodes on to a single layer. Occasionally the nodes can become scattered inside your layers which often leads to the ff:
- Particles operators getting deleted accidentally.
- Particles not showing in the viewports because the Display Operator is on a different (hidden) layer.
- Layers having invisible items.
The script is a Macroscript, run it once and go to your Customize User Interface dialog, under the Keyboard tab, look for Select PF Nodes inside the Particle Flow category.
