How To Remove Parenting From A Blender?

To un-parent objects in Blender, select the objects to be unparented and press ALT+P to choose the option with which you want to remove the relationship, usually the “Clear and Keep Transformation” option. This opens the Clear Parent menu. Select Clear and Keep Transformation if this does not work for you. Learn how to parent objects in Blender using different types of parenting, such as Object, Bone, and Armature.

To clear the parent of an object, use ShiftG > Children to select all the children automatically. You can then remove the parent-child relationships acting upon all. Alt P (Clear Parent) > Clear and Keep Transformation. Otherwise, the child will come back to the position it got before the parentage.

Unparenting objects is a great way to organize your Blender project and save time in selecting, moving, scaling, or rotating compound objects. When using Ctrl-P or 3D View Header ‣ Object ‣ Parent to parent objects, Child Objects can only have one Parent Object. If a Child Object already has a Parent Object and you give it another parent, you can unparent one or more objects from a parent object in Blender using different options.

To delete all the hierarchy (parent and children) at first run, go to outliner and CTRL+Click select on the ICON of the parent (first icon in hierarchy). Learn how to clear parent and disconnect bones in Blender using shortcuts, menus, and panels.

  • alt+p Select “Clear and Keep Transformation” 1:05 is where he says it in the article. Listen, I want to be constructive, but I’m losing my mind here. Almost every blender tutorial is structured like those shitty recipe websites where you get those few paragraphs about what chocolate chip cookies even are and how the author’s grandma used to bake them every Christmas. The article title tells the viewer everything they could ever want to know about what the article is, so there’s no need for a full minute of pre-amble. Just skip straight to the part 99% of people came to watch, and then expound on whatever you want to afterwards. Please understand it’s not that this article is egregious when it comes to waiting around for the information, it’s that almost EVERY article has some sort of unnecessary delay when delivering that information and it makes seeking out tutorials an exercise in frustration. It means when I want to figure out really simple stuff when I’m doing blender, it’s usually more efficient to just spend 5 minutes trying random shit instead of searching it out, and that really hurts everybody. I learn less, and you get less view time because I’d rather jump on my own head than watch a article tutorial. In conclusion, if you’re making a two minute article about a keyboard shortcut I hope you reconsider and speed that shit up.

  • sir new subscriber i have problem idk if you can solve this when i download the clothes from deviantart this clothes have a hand and the rest is inside the clothes i already delete the hands but when i look inside the hole of the clothes there is a arm and others as well can you tell me how to do it without deleting the clothes 🙁

Thank you in advance!

  • I was spending hours trying to find a solution to this. I fucking hate Blender. I fucking hate my wife. I fucking hate this disgusting cough pills that smell like old grass that my coworker is eating all day and I fucking hate searching for random hidden youtube articles to deal with issues that shouldn’t exist in the first place and be properly documented in the blender documentation. BUT NO! Here I am, close to popping a blood vessel in my brain out of sheer anger over this ridiculous fucking retarded piece of shoestring-bound elder dimensional space horror disguised as a 3D suit called Blender. I swear to fucking good ending as a paralyzed drooling potato would be better at this point than to work a single hour more with Blender. Jesus Christ, God, Holy spirit and Jehova have mercy on my god forsaken hollow soul and send me the sweet embrace of eternal nothingness.
