Manual

ScriptableObject Browser is split into 3 columns. From left to right:

  • Type Selection Panel
    • This panel contains all available ScriptableObject types. Click on a type to see all of its asset instances, or click on New to create a new asset of the type.
  • Asset Selection Panel
    • This panel will show all asset instances of the selected type. Click on an item to inspect it in the right panel.

Here are the field names and their descriptions in the window:
