Adds objectToAdd
to an existing asset at path
.
Please note that you should only add assets to '.asset' assets, imported models or texture assets for example will lose their data.
All paths are relative to the project folder, for example: "Assets/MyTextures/hello.png".
Note:
You can not add objectToAdd
if it is GameObject, use PrefabUtility class instead.
@MenuItem("GameObject/Create Material") static function CreateMaterial () { // Create a simple material asset var material = new Material (Shader.Find("Specular")); AssetDatabase.CreateAsset(material, "Assets/MyMaterial.mat");
// Add an animation clip to it var animationClip = new AnimationClip (); animationClip.name = "My Clip"; AssetDatabase.AddObjectToAsset(animationClip, material);
// Reimport the asset after adding an object. // Otherwise the change only shows up when saving the project AssetDatabase.ImportAsset(AssetDatabase.GetAssetPath(animationClip));
// Print the path of the created asset Debug.Log(AssetDatabase.GetAssetPath(material)); }
