Search and Focus

Search Fields Everywhere!

Most windows will have a search field at the top.

As you start to type, matching game objects, assets, components, labels, etc. will appear depending on the window you are searching in.

Focus

Sometimes, you select a game object in the Hierarchy, but it's off-screen in the Scene view or maybe you selected a game object in the Scene view, you but lost where it was located in the Hierarchy window.

Just press F to "focus" or bring close/highlight the location of the selected game object while hovering over the window you need the focus in.

Finding Assets

The three dots on the top right of the Hierarchy window can find and highlight the current scene in the Project window.

Double-clicking on a message, warning, or error in the Console will find and highlight the script giving the message and sometimes the related game object.
