    Searching the current Scene

    Use the Scene Search Provider to find GameObjects in the current Scene.

    By default, Scene Search Provider uses a "fuzzy" search. Fuzzy searches are more resource intensive than direct searches, but usually return more matches. They can be slower in larger Scenes, so you might want to disable them if you notice a lag.

    Search token: h: (for "hierarchy")

    Default action: Select the GameObject in the Scene.

    Context menu actions:

    Action: Function:
    Select object in scene Selects the GameObject in the Scene and the Hierarchy window.
    Open containing asset Opens the Project Asset that contains the GameObject.
