Same Content Browser / Content Drawer

Hi,

I’m pretty new to the unreal development space. There is only 1 thing that is annoying the crap out of me.

Is it possible to have every Content Drawer / Content Browser window the same?

When i’m working on a blueprint in 1 tab and a animation blueprint in another the content drawer of both are completely different. I already found that there are 4 different content browsers but i can’t for the live of me find a option that it uses the same one everywhere.

I did find some post saying that you can dock out the content browser on a second monitor. but the problem is that i only have 1 at the moment.

Is there a secret setting that i’m missing or maybe a plugin that i can enable?

Is there someone that can help me?

Thanks in advance.

Hello @Alivion.x ,
As far as I know, each Content Browser instance in Unreal Engine works independently, which is why you see different folders, filters, and states depending on the tab you’re in.

That said, there are a few things you can do to work more comfortably:

You can add the folders you use frequently to Favorites and even assign them a color, which helps a lot when navigating quickly between different Blueprints.


You can also press Ctrl + B on any asset or Blueprint to jump directly to its location in the Content Drawer / Content Browser.
And you can open the Content Drawer with Ctrl + Space, which is very useful for quick access.

Hope it helps!
