Fast Open Editor Tools

Search commands from all enabled Unity menu roots in real time without navigating nested menus.

Keyboard-first workflow

• Open the command palette with Ctrl+T on Windows or Linux, or Cmd+T on macOS. Use Up and Down to navigate, Enter to execute, and Escape to clear the query or close the window.

Configurable shortcut

• The shortcut is managed by Unity’s Shortcuts Manager and can be changed under Edit > Shortcuts without modifying the package.

Multi-term token search

• Enter multiple space-separated terms. Every term must appear somewhere in the full command path, but terms can appear in any order and use any letter case.

Match highlighting

• Matching parts of command paths are highlighted for faster visual scanning.

Favorites

• Mark frequently used or important commands as favorites. Favorites are placed ahead of non-favorite results and remain available between Editor sessions.

Usage-based ranking

• Successfully executed commands are ranked by usage count, helping frequently used actions surface automatically.

Deterministic result ordering

• Results are ordered by favorite status, successful usage count, and command path, producing consistent and predictable rankings.

Configurable menu coverage

• Choose whether commands from CONTEXT, File, Help, Component, and Window roots appear in search results. All supported roots are enabled by default.

Custom command support

• Commands registered with Unity’s [MenuItem] attribute can appear when Unity includes them in its serialized menu index.

Context-aware execution

• Before running a command, the tool asks Unity whether it is currently enabled. Commands that are unavailable in the current Editor context remain visible, display a notification when selected, and do not change ranking.

Safe mouse interaction

• Left-click a command row to execute it or click its star to change favorite status. Favorite controls and right-click interactions do not accidentally run commands.

Per-project user preferences

• Favorites, successful usage counts, and menu-root choices are stored in UserSettings/FastOpenEditorToolsPreferences.asset for the current project and local Editor user.

User-data reset

• Clear favorites and usage counts from the command palette’s options menu. Menu-root preferences remain unchanged.

Light and dark theme support

• The interface automatically adapts to Unity’s current Editor theme.

Editor-only package

• Fast Open Editor Tools uses Unity Editor APIs and is isolated to an Editor-only assembly, so it does not add code to player builds.
