SyntySearchEditorWindow

Unity Synty Search editor tool

• A Synty "POLYGON" and "Simple" package organizer that works offline in the Unity editor.
• Use alongside the Synty Package Importer tool.
• The search results are organized by asset package.
• The prefab preview images and name text can be scaled using the slider control.
• When you set the disc location of your Unity packages, each package will be indicated as being "unowned", "owned" or "imported".
  • Clicking an "unowned" item will navigate you to the Synty store (www.syntystore.com) page for that package.
  • Clicking an "owned" item will prompt you to import the package into your Unity project.
  • Clicking an "imported" item will highlight that prefab in your project window, for easy location!
• You can set multiple package locations.
• Setting a location will re-scan all files in that folder.
• The Unity asset download folder is always scanned when you set a location.
• Adding other locations is useful if you've downloaded unitypackage files from Unity or the Synty store.
• The tool scans each location for any "POLYGON" unitypackage files and "Simple" unitypackage and zip files.
• The tool builds a database of the asset paths. This scan may take a few minutes but the data is cached and is available across all of your Unity projects!
• This a community project and is not affiliated with Synty Studios.
