No Tile Palette option available in Unity editor

Update 2020/08/03 The issue is fixed in Unity 2019.3 and beyond, where the tile palette option shows up as expected on iOS, making it likely the issue was caused by a bug in 2019.2


As per AJP's own findings: Tile Palette is not available on Mac OSX. But if it was this would be a work around for any menu not showing up in the toolbar.


(I could only test this on windows, but I assume this works on a mac aswel, under the same locations.)

Under Edit there is the option "shortcuts". Go into this window and search for "Tile pallete". Click the Tile palette command and set your custom shortcut. You should now be able to open it without it showing up under the Window > 2D tab.

If it doesn't show up there either then my only guess would be that it isn't installed in your current Unity version (which appears to be the case on mac OSX)

@AJP I was just having a similar issue using 2019.2 Personal.

I found that I needed to add the tile map package to the project, then "Tile Palette" appeared as an option under "Window".

To do this:

  1. Go to Window > Package Manager.
  2. Click 2d Tilemap Editor on the left of the pop up.
  3. Then click install in the lower right hand corner (Install will be replaced with "Remove" once installed).
