How to set file layout for Unity projects in ReSharper – Support | JetBrains

Background/Situation

ReSharper handles file layouts for C# and Unity projects slightly differently. For Unity C# code, the file layout includes specific considerations for Unity-specific attributes and serialization behaviors, which do not apply to standard C# code.

Question

How can the file layout be set to handle Unity C# projects in ReSharper?

Answer

To configure a file layout for Unity code in ReSharper, follow these steps:

Open the File Layout Settings:
- Press Alt + R, O in Visual Studio or (Extensions) | ReSharper | Options.
- Navigate to Code Editing | C# | File Layout.
Switch to XAML Mode: In the file layout editor, switch to edit mode to modify the layout directly in XAML.

Add the Combined File Layout Pattern: Copy and paste the following pattern into the XAML editor:

<Patterns xmlns="urn:schemas-jetbrains-com:member-reordering-patterns"
          xmlns:unity="urn:schemas-jetbrains-com:member-reordering-patterns-unity">
  <!-- Pattern to match classes used by Unity that contain serialised fields
       and event function methods. Based on the standard "Default Pattern",
       this will also order event functions before normal methods, and does
       not reorder serialised fields, as this order is reflected in the Unity
       editor's Inspector -->
