EditorPlugin

Inherits: Node < Object

Used by the editor to extend its functionality.

Description

Plugins are used by the editor to extend functionality. The most common types of plugins are those which edit a given node or resource type, import plugins and export plugins. See also EditorScript to add functions to the editor.

Note: Some names in this class contain "left" or "right" (e.g. DOCK_SLOT_LEFT_UL). These APIs assume left-to-right layout, and would be backwards when using right-to-left layout. These names are kept for compatibility reasons.
