The way to search for specific entities in the current DOTS Hierarchy window is to write c:ComponentType. This filters the entities to only show the entities that have that component.
However, the following use cases do not seem to be searchable:
-
Searching for entities containing two (or more) specified components. Currently, adding a second component in the search bar functions as an OR (where it shows entities that have either (or both) of the components) instead of an AND
-
Filtering out disabled entities, unless specifically asked to be included
-
Filtering out prefab entities, unless specifically asked to be included
These use cases were supported by the old Entities Debugger window, so not having these options in the current Hierarchy window has been a significant step back for my workflow.
Perhaps other functions could be supported as well:
- Searching for a given value of a shared component
- Searching for enabled/disabled components (only applies to enablable components)
