# Use the Project Settings window

> Learn about the Project Settings window and how to find settings in the Project Settings window.

To open the Project Settings window, go to **Edit** > Editor.

The Project Settings window can also display additional categories and settings, based on the packages you install. For more information on package-specific settings, refer to corresponding package documentation.


**Project Settings window:**
![](/api/media?file=/engine/6000.7/media/images/Settings.png)


**A:**
![](/api/media?file=/engine/6000.7/media/images/LetterA.png) Use the *Search box* to filter the list of settings categories on the left and highlight keywords in the details pane on the right.


**B:**
![](/api/media?file=/engine/6000.7/media/images/LetterB.png) All settings are organized by category, which appear in the *category list* on the left. When you select a category from the list, the details pane displays the associated settings.


**C:**
![](/api/media?file=/engine/6000.7/media/images/LetterC.png) The *details pane* displays all available settings for the selected category.

The following table lists the default settings categories that are available in the Project Settings window.

## Find settings in the Project Settings window

To find a setting, enter a partial or whole keyword in the search box at the top of the Project Settings window.


**Limit the scope by entering a keyword in the search box:**
![](/api/media?file=/engine/6000.7/media/images/Settings-filter.png)

As you enter a keyword in the search box, the category list changes dynamically. For example, if you enter the keyword **mode**, the category list limits its scope to only the Project settings that match this keyword. At the same time, the details pane highlights occurrences of the matching keyword.

> You can use the same procedure for finding and filtering [preferences](/engine/6000.7/manual/unity-editor/editor-settings-reference/preferences.md).
