    Hierarchy Pro & Project Too:
    extended em pack 2021


    [ This asset has come a long way since it was first published: ]
    HSF30002.png

    [ A couple of useful stuff: ]
    HSF30003.png

    [ And the most important part: saved data. ]
    • All cache is stored separately from the scenes, no any data will be saved in the scene,
    • Asset creates only temporarily session data, for current editor session only.
    • You can safely copy your scene to anyone, who don't have this asset without any problems.
    ( to get more information about how ‘Cache’ works, check the ‘Cache’ section on the https://emem.space/wiki )

    I really like this Asset, nice price and enough functions for my needs. Thank you. :3
    I love the customization with personal icons, colors, descriptions and more.
    You can control the components via Hierarchy and hide components you dont want to see all the time.

    My suggestions for an update would be to add support for the light UI Skin because the lock and enable icons are too bright if you not using the Dark UI Editor Skin. a padding value for the distance between the component icons would be nice too. :)

    Here is a little Bug Report to help out:
    1. You wrote ""LEFT CLILCK FOR CHANGE" inside a settings image, little spelling mistake.

    2. The Opacity of the text is not correct by moving the parts too much to the left. (Image 1) but if i click on the point to change the menu-border, it will goes fully visible again. i didnt changed the position and had it transparent before i clicked. (Image 2)




    This asset is a must have for easy and fast management in your scenes. :3

    Hi 'LadyNyuuu'

    We'll check icons for the light UI and will add customize padding for icons
    About opacity - we will try to ensure its inclusion in the next, but it's a bit of a hassle:oops:

    Thank you for choosing our plugin, and we were pleased to see that you're satisfied!!:)

    Hi Mr Duke.
    Your asset look really useful.
    I read that your asset requires Unity 5.5.0 or higher.
    But my project still work in Unity 5.3, and i cannot upgrade to Unity 5.5.
    So is there any possible way to use your asset in Unity 5.3 ?
    Hope to get your response soon.
    Thanks.

    Does anyone experience your editor slowing down after installing this?

    My editor is unresponsive 20% of the time, and i always have the spinning icon at the bottom right of my editor indicating that something is either compiling or busy being processed.

    I have the same problem on 2017.1.0f3. Importing this package causes the editor to constantly rebuild the code. Uninstalling for now.

    EDIT: It seems in my case the Odin Inspector & Serializer is conflicting with Hierarchy Pro. Removing Odin fixes the problem. The developer of Hierarchy Pro is working on trying to find a way to have those two play nice together.

    If you are reading this and are going to buy a plug-in, please refrain. There are some problems. It will be better if you make a purchase in 5 dayso_Oo_Oo_O

    Issue: with this asset enabled, opening any scene triggers changed flag.

    What I mean is, with this asset disabled, I can open any scene; without making any changes I can start on a new scene without any warnings.

    With asset enabled, any scene I open has an asterisk next to title in hierarchy and if I start new scene, I get an warning if I would want to save my changes.

    I hope that makes sense.

    I guess that's what happens when you open scene, that had been used with the previous version (
    1.14 and below)

    Hi,

    First thanks for the awesome asset , it's very cool and smooth.

    I just have a question or rather a small issue :D , i create a new scene and just add a sprite ( the sprite is true color no compression and not in texture at atlas) when i set the memory optimizer to show the textures factor it doesn't show the correct texture size it's actually way different and also i don't get all why divide by objects count ? memory usage doesn't decrease when duplicating sprites :D is there's an option to not make it divide by objects count or does it is actually mean something i'm missing ?

    Thanks :)

    Hey, Ok. In the next version I will disable the division by the objects count when the brodcasting is turned off. And what of texture size))) if the readable/writable option is enabled then the texture is duplicated, but apparently for the editor, it is always on. I have added a division by 2 for textures.

    Thanks:rolleyes:

    Nice to see this plugin evolve! Two things I wish it could do:
    • Ability to scale up appearance of gameobject icons (potentially needs some auto padding on the left side of the gameobjects names)
    • Ability to apply a color to an icon (I have a lot of white on transparent icons I want to use for the hirarchy but it's a little hard to differentiate between them (especially at this size))

    @mr_duke I've uninstalled Hierarchy Pro using the create the 'HierarchyClearSavedDataHelper.cs' option.

    How can I remove all references to DataHelper so I can delete HierarchyClearSavedDataHelper.cs and not get any warning messages?

    Thanks, Steven

    Hello, Steven! I'll probably add a button for immediately remove to the next version at the end of the week :rolleyes: I didn't expect anyone wants to remove this :D

    I'm sorry for this process cause hardship
    As you begin to remove you can put an underscore at the end of the HierarchyClearSavedDataHelper.cs_ script name to make sure that there are no more warnings

    Hey, since version 1.16 file has been renamed from hierarchydata.txt. You may update your version if hierarchydata.txt is included in your final build. this one happened because by default, the assembly includes all the text files in assets forlder.
    But the hierarchy plugin cannot be moved into any editor folder. because there you can not place scripts that inherit monobehaviour.
    I have a couple of things in my mind but for this i have to disable a dozen features. probably I'll make a toggle for those who do not need a deep integration

    @mr_duke, I don't know how your code works internally : but I've got mono files within editor folder myself. From unity doc:

    Note: Unity does not allow components derived from MonoBehaviour to be assigned to GameObjects if the scripts are in the Editor folder.

    I didn't think you were assigning scripts to gameObject :D

    Additional:
    1) Where can I find my installed version number - I thought I have the latest, but I do not have hierarchydata.txt file but hierarchydata file

    2) It's not 1994 anymore :D How about a professional ReadMe file which can be viewed in Unity Inspector.

    And as for the detailed ReadMe:) i try to insert images help images in settings menu upload_2017-9-28_17-26-22.png Unless of course that won't be enough we will put in something else

    Two things i wish were optional:
    • Show/Hide column in the right panel. Not everyone needs it and it's adding a lot of visual clutter. I want to keep the right panel active for tags and layer display, though.
    • Prefab icon in the left panel. Again, not everyone needs this. Personally I only use the color highlighting feature of the left panel.

    AWESOME!! instantly bought it, even JUST for the icons to the left of the objects...
    id been naming stuff like f_BulletsInScene .. which is like a folder, just an empty, and like for very important objects just like ==-DATABASE_HANDLER-== ... now i dont have to name stuff stupid like that, i just have icons for it!

    one thing though
    the Hypergraph is AWESOME, but i wish it could be its own docker window thing, and i wish i could scale the whole size of it up so i can read it better lol, and some of the text is white on grey .. (in Unity Free UIskin)

    other than that this is amazing, and thanks for the low price!
    its a thing like everyone should have and for the price, its an instant buy without any possible regret

    and the tags and layers in the hierarchy is a LIFESAVER for my current project, i have these complex prefabs with all sorts of children objects with tons of different tags and layers, and i was having to click em each just to see their tags and stuff omg this is great thanks!

    MaxPirat and 2dgame: Sorry for the delayed update. We carried out a total revision of all parts of the program, and some things affected different parts of the program. That was the case like when you change something at first and then guess whether other functions would work properly. So there was a need of a careful and thorough check. We also added the documentation http://emodules.me/wiki and tied it to different parts of the plug-in. We hope you will enjoy the update. At the moment, we are optimizing the work with large scenes and strive to achieve a smooth operation when working with the "> 1000k" objects. We will publish it in the next update. As for the interface, there are already a lot of optimization methods however, there remained room for improvement. We will eventually improve the performance of its components.

    BuckyLuis: we introduced changes to the interface. As for a separate window for HyperGraph, we haven’t added it yet but will add in the next update. Also, we need to slightly change the analysis of the references to the selected object, because if there are many such references (>30), small delays may occur. Although these delays last less than a second, they cause some discomfort, and if HyperGraph is in a separate window, then it is assumed that it will update the values on every change of selection. So we will add everything needed in the next update.

    As for the price, it turns out that $3 is too much, for some. I think that we’ll remove some functions like "memory analysis," "HyperGraph," "search window" and publish a light version for $2.

    Hi, I just purchased this and I think it is awesome!
    I was wondering if there is any way to select a whole hierarchy of a gameobject, as in parent plus all child. Is it possible?

    I read the documentation and I have a question: regarding right panel / components section, I did not find in the settings the option to group the script icons.

    Am I blind? can you help me pls?

    Grammar cop : In your tooltip, the word you're looking for is "which", and not "witch".

    Hey @mr_duke I'm having trouble getting the PlayMode data keeper to work.

    I've got it selected:

    But the button to keep the data doesn't show up:

    I've ensured it's all enabled in the Settings too:
