# scenes

> The list of scenes in the active platform profile or build profile to be included in the build.

## Definition

* **Type:** Property
* **Namespace:** [UnityEditor](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEditor

```csharp
public static EditorBuildSettingsScene[] scenes { get; set; }
```

### Remarks

When the active profile is a platform profile, this property reflects the global scenes. When the active profile is a build profile, if the build profile overrides the global scenes, it reflects the scenes specified in the build profile; otherwise, it reflects the global scenes.

Note: When calling [BuildPipeline.BuildPlayer](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/buildpipeline/buildplayer.md) directly, [BuildPlayerOptions.scenes](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/buildplayeroptions/scenes.md) can be used instead of this property.

### Examples

```csharp
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEditor;
using UnityEngine;

public class ExampleWindow : EditorWindow
{
    List<SceneAsset> m_SceneAssets = new List<SceneAsset>();

    // Add menu item named "Example Window" to the Window menu
    [MenuItem("Window/Example Window")]
    public static void ShowWindow()
    {
        //Show existing window instance. If one doesn't exist, make one.
        EditorWindow.GetWindow(typeof(ExampleWindow));
    }

    void OnGUI()
    {
        GUILayout.Label("Scenes to include in build:", EditorStyles.boldLabel);
        for (int i = 0; i < m_SceneAssets.Count; ++i)
        {
            m_SceneAssets[i] = (SceneAsset)EditorGUILayout.ObjectField(m_SceneAssets[i], typeof(SceneAsset), false);
        }
        if (GUILayout.Button("Add"))
        {
            m_SceneAssets.Add(null);
        }

        GUILayout.Space(8);

        if (GUILayout.Button("Apply To Build Settings"))
        {
            SetEditorBuildSettingsScenes();
        }
    }

    public void SetEditorBuildSettingsScenes()
    {
        // Find valid Scene paths and make a list of EditorBuildSettingsScene
        List<EditorBuildSettingsScene> editorBuildSettingsScenes = new List<EditorBuildSettingsScene>();
        foreach (var sceneAsset in m_SceneAssets)
        {
            string scenePath = AssetDatabase.GetAssetPath(sceneAsset);
            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(scenePath))
                editorBuildSettingsScenes.Add(new EditorBuildSettingsScene(scenePath, true));
        }

        // Set the active platform or build profile scene list
        EditorBuildSettings.scenes = editorBuildSettingsScenes.ToArray();
    }
}
```
