This version of Project Auditor isn't supported. For information about installing the latest version, refer to Project Auditor package.

This view reports all shader variants included in the build.

How to Use

To view the built Shader Variants, run your build pipeline and Refresh:

• Build the project and/or Addressables/AssetBundles
• Click the Refresh button Note that it's important to clear the cache before building Addressables.

To clear the recorded variants use the Clear button
