About

A basic Unity editor window that allows you to find materials by shader. Made using Unity version 2021.3 LTS.

Purpose

One time I was trying to find a way to select the materials in my project by their shader. But I couldn't find a way to do it. So that's why I created this editor extension for Unity.

How to Use

  1. Download the latest release from the releases page.
  2. Install it by extracting the SearchMaterialByShader.cs file into any folder named "Editor" within your Unity project.
  3. Within unity, at the top tool bar, click "Tools", then "Search Material By Shader"
  4. It will default to the Standard shader, but you can pick any other if you wish.
  5. Click find materials.
  6. You can now select the material(s) that it has found!
