    The asset selection window is just a mess, it shows ALL assets in your project, when there are a lot of assets, this is painful.

    I would suggest adding the an option to view the assets by folder, this would make asset selection 1000% easier and more convenient. I can't believe that this isn't already implemented.

    Thanks, I'll try that out. I'm glad that I'm not the only one that asset selection sucks.

    Come on Unity developers, step up your game.

    I did see in the 2019.1 release notes somewhere that a "advanced dropdown" api is now available

    Maybe it could be used instead of these unity pickers? as the code for them is very complicated
