@ContextMenu ("Do Something") function DoSomething () { Debug.Log ("Perform operation"); }
// C# example:
class ContextTesting : MonoBehaviour {
/// Add a context menu named "Do Something" in the inspector
/// of the attached script.
[ContextMenu ("Do Something")]
void DoSomething () {
Debug.Log ("Perform operation");
}
}
