Search and Selection tool

This is a tool I had started working on a few months ago, but got side tracked with other projects and never finished. I’ve started working on it again and thought I would post this as to document where it’s currently at and explain what it does.

It allows you to search the current scene in Unity to select objects that are similar. By default the hierarchy in the editor can search objects by name to find objects. I created a new window to hold a GameObject in the scene or a prefab and change what the search should care about with that GameObject to search against. In this example my code searched the hierarchy for any GameObject that was named Cube and selected them for me. There is also functionality for tag, layer and many of the other sections listed here, however they still need more testing, the Components and Active settings will also need more work done on them before I can release this. I will keep posting updates on this on here on my blog. If there eventually is a public release of this it will be linked here. I also will create a project page for it at some point in the future which will be linked here.
