HOW TO USE IT
For the purpose of this documentation the term “right-click” will be used as the operation opening a context menu.
You can open the 4AI Geek Context Menu as any context menu in the Unity Inspector by right-clicking on an array or list element name (not a value). In some versions of Unity it is also possible to right-click on the array/list name itself – in this case it assumes that the clicked element index is zero. 4AI Geek Context Menu is appended to the standard Unity context menu items.

ADDON DESCRIPTIONS
Below you can find descriptions of the current Geek Inspector Context Menu addons.
Common terms and identifiers simplifying the descriptions
- clickedINDEX – clicked array or list item index,
- START – current FIXED / LOCKED range start,
- END – current FIXED / LOCKED range end,
- R – current range size (equal to: END-START+1 in the LOCKED state or b-a+1 in the UNLOCKED state),
- <a, b> – a range where a = clickedINDEX and (b – a + 1) = R
- <START, END>, LOCKED range – a range locked to specific array or list elements that is modified if the position of elements change,
- FIXED range – a range that was usually LOCKED earlier and UNLOCKED later,
- regular range <a, b> – the range <a, b> where b >= a,
- GEEK CLIPBOARD – internal Geek Inspector Addons clipboard.
SINGLE COMMANDS
SET range START and LOCK
SET the array or list range START to clickedINDEX so that the final range is <clickedINDEX, END> and is LOCKED. See the LOCK range command for more information.
SET range END and LOCK
SET the array or list range END to clickedINDEX so that the final range is <START, clickedINDEX> and is LOCKED. See the LOCK range command for more information.
LOCK range
LOCK the range <clickedINDEX, R>. If you execute a command such as MOVE range by N or SHIFT range by N on a LOCKED range, the whole range will be moved or shifted by N too. When you have a LOCKED range, you can click on any array / list item and it will not have any effect on the range a given command will use. The range will be equal to <START, END>.
UNLOCK range
Unlocks the range, which means that the current range will be recalculated based on the current clickedINDEX and current range size R. If you click at a different array or list element, the range will start at that element. The related context menu item is available when the range is LOCKED.
RELOCK range
UNLOCK the range <START, END> and LOCK the range <clickedINDEX, clickedINDEX+R-1>, so that the new range size is unchanged, but the START is equal to clickedINDEX. The related context menu item is available when the range is LOCKED.
LOCK ALL
LOCK the whole range of a given array or list. If you execute a command such as MOVE range by N or SHIFT range by N on a LOCKED range, the whole range will be moved or shifted by N too. When you have a LOCKED range, you can click on any array / list item and it will not have any effect on the range a given command will use. The range will be equal to <START, END>.
COPY ALL items
COPY all array or list items to the GEEK CLIPBOARD.
COPY ALL and LOCK range
COPY all array or list items to the GEEK CLIPBOARD and LOCK the whole array / list range.
COPY ONE item
COPY ONE clicked item to the GEEK CLIPBOARD.
COPY range
COPY the range <clickedINDEX, clickedINDEX+R-1> to the GEEK CLIPBOARD.
COPY range LOCKED
COPY the LOCKED range <START, END> to the GEEK CLIPBOARD.
The related context menu item is available when the range is LOCKED.
COPY and LOCK range and SET (range) END
COPY the range <START, clickedINDEX> to the GEEK CLIPBOARD and LOCK it. Set the range END to clickedINDEX.
