設定	説明
Target Edit Mode	This sets the behavior for editing a target when a Prefab instance is selected in the Active Target list. Editing a Prefab instance in the Scene isn’t recommended due to performance issues. Note: This affects the Active Tilemap list in pre–2021.2 Editor versions.
	Enable Dialog	Displays a dialog for you to choose between editing the target in Unity’s prefab editing mode or in the Scene view.
	Edit In Prefab Mode	Select this to edit only the target Tilemap in the prefab editing mode.
	Edit In Scene	Select this to edit only the target Tilemap in the Scene view.
Mouse Grid Position At Z	Enable this setting to have Unity display the Brush marquee at the current z position rather than at the default z = 0 position. This also affects how you position your mouse cursor to draw tiles at different z positions (refer to examples below).
Active Targets Sorting Mode	Sets the method for sorting the Active Targets (affects Active Tilemaps in pre–2021.2 Editor versions) list in the Tile Palette.
	Alphabetical	Sorts the list in alphabetical order, with the first item at the top of the list.
	ReverseAlphabetical	Sorts the list in reverse alphabetical order, with the first item at the top of the list.
Restore Edit Mode Active Target	Enable this to restore the targeted Active Target (Active Tilemap in pre–2021.2 Editor versions) in the Tile Palette window after returning to Edit mode from Play mode.
Create Tile Method	Use this to specify the method Unity uses create Tile Assets when you drag a texture or a sprite onto a Tile Palette. The default option is DefaultTile, which creates a tile type Tile Asset.
Show Open Tile Palette In Scene View	Enable this to display the Open Tile Palette overlay in the Scene view when selecting an object that interacts with the Tile Palette.
Prefab Mode Grid Cell Size	Sets the default Cell Size when opening a tilemap prefab in the prefab editing mode when there is no valid Grid in the prefab.
Prefab Mode Grid Cell Gap	Sets the default Cell Gap when opening a tilemap prefab in the prefab editing mode when there is no valid Grid in the prefab.
Prefab Mode Grid Cell Layout	Sets the default Cell Layout when opening a tilemap prefab in the prefab editing mode when there is no valid Grid in the prefab.
Prefab Mode Grid Cell Swizzle	Sets the default Cell Swizzle when opening a tilemap prefab in the prefab editing mode when there is no valid Grid in the prefab.
Default Tile Palette Tools	This determines the list of tools which are available in the Tile Palette window to use with Grid Brushes. The left panel stores the list of tools usable in the Tile Palette. The right panel stores the list of unused tools, which you can add to the available tools. To add a tool to the usable list, select it in the right panel and then select Add (+) to add it to the left panel. To remove a tool from the usable list, select it in the left panel and then select Remove (-) to remove it from the left panel.
	Save	Save changes made to the Default Tile Palette Tools.
	Revert	Revert changes made to the Default Tile Palette Tools.
	Reset	Resets the Default Tile Palette Tools back to the system default.

Effect of Mouse Grid Position At Z

The following examples display the differences between not enabling the setting (the default option) and enabling it. When the setting isn’t enabled, Unity displays the Brush marquee at the default z = 0 position. To draw the following tiles, you position the mouse cursor within the area marked by the white marquee as shown below.

Enable Mouse Grid Position At Z to display the Brush marquee at the current z position. To draw tiles in the same position shown in Example 1, position your mouse cursor within the blue marquee area instead.
