editor-scriptinghierarchyeditor windowbar
Is there a way to enter a text in the search bar of the hierarchy window by an editor script ?
I'm currently working on a editor script and I wanted to know if is there a way enter directly a text directly in the textfield of a search bar in a editor window, here the hierarchy window.
I want to set my on string on a textfield on already existing the search bar, not recreating a new one either recreating a new hierarchy window.
I want a result something like this :
when I type a script something like that :
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;
public class ExampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
[MenuItem("Test/Do A Search")]
void Search ()
{
EditorHierarchyWindow.SearchBar.EnterText ("Something");
}
}
Is there a way to doing it ? Thank you in advance.
