# Editor / Selection / Set
|
|
|
|
Set the current Selection in the Unity Editor to the provided objects. Use 'editor-selection-get' tool to get the current selection first.
|
|
|
|
## Inputs
|
|
|
|
- `select` — array of `ObjectRef`. Every entry MUST resolve via `FindObject()`; otherwise the tool throws before touching `Selection.objects`.
|
|
|
|
## Behavior
|
|
|
|
Assigns the resolved array to `Selection.objects`, then calls `UnityEditorInternal.InternalEditorUtility.RepaintAllViews()` so Hierarchy/Inspector reflect the change. Returns the post-change `SelectionData` snapshot.
|
|
|
|
## How to Call
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-selection-set --input '{
|
|
"select": "string_value"
|
|
}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
|
|
> ```bash
|
|
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-selection-set --input-file args.json
|
|
> ```
|
|
>
|
|
> Or pipe via stdin (recommended):
|
|
> ```bash
|
|
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-selection-set --input-file - <<'EOF'
|
|
> {"param": "value"}
|
|
> EOF
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
If `unity-mcp-cli` is not found, either install it globally (`npm install -g unity-mcp-cli`) or use `npx unity-mcp-cli` instead.
|
|
Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.
