# Unity Editor Pinned Folder Window

An isolated view for folders that won't change due to file selections, *unlike the Project window*.

Useful for keeping direct access to a specific folder where you're frequently dragging assets out of into the Inspector, etc.

**Disclaimer:** Designed for Unity 2022.3.22f1 (for VRChat), so it's possible this may not work with newer or older Unity versions, as it relies on internal styles used by the Project window.

## How To Use

* Place the file `PinnedFolderWindow.cs` into your Unity project in `Assets/Editor/` (or under any `Editor/` folder).

* A Pinned Folder can be opened from **Window** > **Trigger Segfault** > **New Pinned Folder** -or- **Assets** > **Trigger Segfault** > **New Pinned Folder** (Note that **Assets** is also the context menu for right clicking in the Project window).

* Opening a new Pinned Window will attempt to dock it to any existing Pinned Window tabs.

* Dragging a folder or file onto the top bar of the window (where the path is shown) will change the current path to the associated folder or parent folder respectively.

* Right clicking a file item gives options to Open it, Show in Explorer, Select and Inspect, or open the Properties window.

* Double clicking a file item behaves identically to doing so in the Project window.

* Files in this window can be dragged out of this window into any other location, however, files cannot be dragged into this window (besides for changing the current folder).

### Navigation

* Comes with most standard navigation keybinds (based on Windows keybinds).

* Additionally, Left will go up one folder, and Right will go down one.
