What's New in Unity Graph Toolkit 0.4.0-exp.1

Important

Unity Graph Toolkit is included as a module in the Editor as of Unity version 6.4 and later, and does not require a separate installation. You can find the samples and accompanying documentation in the Unity Graph Toolkit samples package com.unity.graphtoolkit-samples.

This update adds new default keyboard shortcuts to improve workflow and efficiency for your graphs, adds context (right-click) menus, and includes various bug fixes.

New keyboard shortcuts

Added the following default keyboard shortcuts for graphs.

Command	Shortcut (Windows)	Shortcut (macOS)	Description
Create Local Subgraph from Selection	`Ctrl + Shift + L`	`Cmd + Shift + L`	Converts the selected nodes into a local subgraph.
Pan	`Right-click + drag`	n/a	Pans the graph view.

Users can customize these shortcuts in the Unity Editor as follows:

From the main menu, go to Edit > Shortcuts (macOS: Unity > Shortcuts).
In the Category column, select the name of the graph to customize the shortcuts bound to that graph.

For more details on how to work with shortcuts, refer to Keyboard Shortcuts.

New context menus

Added context (right-click) menus to the following areas of the graph editor:

The Blackboard and variables on the blackboard
Context nodes and block nodes
Graph canvas
Nodes and State nodes
Placemats
Ports
Sticky notes
Subgraph nodes
Variable and constant nodes in the graph canvas (separate from variables on the blackboard)
Wires

In addition, the following changes were made to context menus:

Contextual menus now show only the commands that are common to the selected items, instead of combining all menu commands.
When you right-click on an empty part of the graph canvas, the graph canvas menu opens, even if graph elements are selected.
