Focused Browser — Overview

Focused browser is a project browser-like window that you can drag-and-drop whatever assets are relevant to the feature you are working on. It also adds the ability to change the color of folders in the project browser / focused browser. Never again deal with the frustration of searching for or scrolling around for a the handful of files that are relevant to your current task.

Workflow

Focused browser is an editor window.

Open Window → Focused Browser to open the window.

Drag and drop the assets you want quick access to into the window. Organize your assets as in your project browser, or make folders and move things around.

Easily change which assets are displayed in the focused browser, and even create some common asset types from within the window.

Notes

Make sure to ignore ProjectSettings/FocusedBrowser.asset and ProjectSettings/FolderColors.json in your version control so your team doesn't get synced focused browsers or folder colors, respectively. My team actually likes having synced folder colors, so discuss with your team.
