    Dear Community,

    We’re pleased to announce a preview build for the Prefab Asset Editing feature that we’re bringing to 2018 LTS. This makes it possible to view and modify the Prefab Asset root GameObject in the Inspector without having to open Prefab Mode.

    Once we've listened to all the feedback from the community and we're satisfied with the stability and quality of the feature, the intention is to include it in forthcoming mainline, public releases of 2018 LTS.


    The latest build is available here:
    https://beta.unity3d.com/download/82b67fa0f042/public_download.html


    Please leave all positive or negative feedback in this thread and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can to address any issues or concerns.



    Thanks,


    Release Management

    Testing on my project, nothing wrong to report so far. I'm really happy this came up.
    Is it known when this preview will become an official release ?

    At the moment we can't commit to a specific release as we want to gather feedback from the community before making the decision. Rest assured it will be as soon as we feel comfortable.

    I think that is very important! Please add to latest 2018.4.4

    All works fine in my project: 10 different Prefabs ;-)

    Last I heard was it was still in testing with no definitive ETA. Hope they approve and ship it before the end of this month though. *fingers crossed*
