  • Editor: A new column in the Hierarchy window allows users to enable/disable Object picking in the Scene View. An Object that is "Not Pickable" is still be visible in the scene, but is ignored by click or drag-select interactions. Icons in the Object picking column indicate whether or not an Object is pickable. Toggling between Pickable/Not Pickable does not mark the scene as dirty, or affect game data.

  • Editor: Users can now disable domain reload and Scene reload when entering Play mode. This can speed up iteration in the editor.

  • Editor: Users can now set custom UI scaling on windows across the Editor.

The experimental API is currently implemented on top of DirectX Raytracing API (part of DirectX 12 Graphics API) and requires at least Windows 10 October 2018 version (1809) and a DXR-enabled GPU. New objects exposed in C# UnityEngine.Experimental.Rendering namespace: RayTracingShader and RayTracingAccelerationStructure. Use SystemInfo.supportsRayTracing for checking if a system supports the Ray Tracing API.
