Active Object Scroll

Cycle which selected object is active without touching the selection. Useful before tools that care about the active object — parenting, snap targets, Grid from Active, copying modifiers. Wraps around at both ends. Object Mode.

Hotkey: Ctrl+Alt+Wheel up / down.

Tips

  • The new active object's name is reported in the status bar.
  • The order follows Blender's internal selection order, not the Outliner.
