Easier access to the scene variables editor

GDevelop general Feature requests

We probably spend most of our time in the events editor but we have to go to the scene editor tab and press V or choose from the project manager to access the scene variables.

Potential solutions

  1. have a shortcut that also works from the events editor, possibly tricky
  2. have a button at the top right near the other buttons in the events editor, potential clutter
  3. or (my preference) no change to how to access it unless it’s easy and/or nice but have the scene variables editor open in its own tab just like the scene and events tabs, instead of the pop up box it opens in now

I love solution number three. It should be convenient to have a shortcut to switch between tabs.

Hi, wow, can’t believe this was more than a year ago :clock1: :eagle:

Anyway, bumping my own request to say that now that the workflow of GD has a greater focus on the variables editor, having it as a tab like option 3 above would be even more handy.

I’m definitely for 1 AND 2.
3 tabs for one scene is too much.
Maybe a combined tab with square buttons for scene, events and variables…
But in 99% of cases I get to the variable editor via variable conditions/actions.
