    In regular shaders, you can set the shader's menu name with:

    Shader "Custom Shaders/My Shader"

    I can't figure out how to do the same with Shader Graph. I'd like to modify this so my ShaderGraph shaders can be categorized like the rest of them.

    Under the name of the shader in the top left of the Shader Graph (where the properties are added), there is a small faint dash. Double click that to enter the name of the shader.

    Thanks so much! I couldn't find that anywhere in the documentation, and I didn't notice it in the editor.

    This may have changed slightly in 2019.3. Under the name of the shader (where the properties are), in dark grey is the name of the menu 'folder', default is 'Shader Graphs'. Double click to edit.

    To provide a visual reference, double clicking Shader Graphs will allow you set the menu name of the shader.
