The CurrentSubTool property of the EditorToolManager class provides access to the currently active sub-tool within the editor environment. This property is an instance of Editor.EditorTool and allows developers to retrieve or set the sub-tool that is currently in use. The sub-tool is a more specific tool that operates under the context of a broader tool, represented by the CurrentTool property.
To use the CurrentSubTool property, you can directly access it from an instance of EditorToolManager. This property can be both read and modified, allowing you to check which sub-tool is currently active or to set a new sub-tool as needed.
Example usage:
// Access the current sub-tool
Editor.EditorTool currentSubTool = editorToolManager.CurrentSubTool;
// Set a new sub-tool
editorToolManager.CurrentSubTool = newSubToolInstance;// Example of accessing and setting the CurrentSubTool property
// Assume editorToolManager is an instance of EditorToolManager
Editor.EditorTool currentSubTool = editorToolManager.CurrentSubTool;
// Output the name of the current sub-tool
string subToolName = currentSubTool?.Name ?? "No sub-tool active";
// Set a new sub-tool
Editor.EditorTool newSubTool = new Editor.EditorTool();
editorToolManager.CurrentSubTool = newSubTool;
// Verify the change
if (editorToolManager.CurrentSubTool == newSubTool)
{
// Successfully set the new sub-tool
}
