Close Your name Your email Suggestion* DescriptionProvides a collection of static utilities, properties, and events to interact with the Unity Editor application itself.
Use EditorApplication to check various properties in the current Editor session or as a building block to create custom tools and workflows. For more information on extending the Editor, refer to Support for Editor UI.
Note that this class is only available in the Editor. For similar functionalities that relate to the project you are building, refer to Application.
In the following example, we are using the EditorApplication class to create a custom workflow allowing you to start your game from the main scene, as defined in the build profile, without requiring you to navigate to it manually. We then restore your authoring state when you return to edit mode.
Additional resources: Application, EditorWindow, Editor.
