Resources List

The Resources list displays all of the assets within the ResourceRoot folder. The Resources list is visible by default, but you can choose its item in the Window menu to close and reopen it at will.

 

To open the Resources list, select the Window > Resources menu item.

A checkmark appears next to the Resources item in the Window menu and the Resources list appears at the top of the LevelEditor workspace.

When the Resources window is open, but not frontmost, you can click its tab to make it visible.

 

To close the Resources list, select the Window > Resources menu item again.

No checkmark appears next to the Resources item in the Window menu and the Resources list is hidden.

 

When the Resources list is open, its left pane displays a tree view of the contents of the ResourceRoot folder. The right pane displays information about the current selection in the tree view. By default, the right pane shows the Details View, which provides Name, Size, Type and Date information. To view thumbnails instead, right-click in the Resources list, and choose Thumbnail View item from the contextual menu; to go back to the Details View, right click in the thumbnail view and choose Details View from the contextual menu.

The Resources list example in the figure below shows a hierarchical view of folders and subfolders that contain resources. The Textures folder is selected, so the right pane displays information about its contents; in this example, the right pane displays thumbnails of the texture files in the folder.
