Sorting Custom Assets Into Sub Lists?

Unity Engine
1

Hi,
when you create custom assets they all seams to appear in the same long right click list menu. This quickly becomes unusable. Is there a way to have them sort into sub lists similar to how we can define a “menu” for our custom editor windows to appear under.

E.g.
Camera Behaviors → My Camera Behavior1, MyCameraBehavior2.
AI Behaviors → My AI Behavior 1, My AI Behavior 2.

Thanks.

No, but that’s on our backlog and may be in a release soon.

Its pretty critical for a project of any size as that list quickly becomes unmanageable. Any possibility of getting a date? We may have to move in a different direction and create our own timeline otherwise.

You can add a category by using the DisplayName attribute and adding a “/” in the name.

[System.Serializable]
[DisplayName("Category/CustomClip1")]
public class MyClipAsset : PlayableAsset
{
    public override Playable CreatePlayable(PlayableGraph graph, GameObject go)
    {
        return Playable.Create(graph);
    }
}


[DisplayName("Category/CustomClip2")]
public class CustomClip2 : PlayableAsset
{
    public override Playable CreatePlayable(PlayableGraph graph, GameObject go)
    {
        return Playable.Create(graph);
    }
}
