Shader Graph Window

Description

The Shader Graph Window contains the workspace for creating shaders with the Shader Graph system. To open the Shader Graph Window, you must first create a Shader Graph Asset. For more information, refer to the Getting Started section.

The Shader Graph window contains various individual elements such as the Blackboard, Graph Inspector, and Main Preview. You can move these elements around inside the workspace. They automatically anchor to the nearest corner when scaling the Shader Graph Window.
