Bedrock Editor v0.5.9 is a minor alpha release for the Bedrock Editor released on March 14, 2024, which makes some changes.^[1][2]

API

• Added three classes: the IBlockPaletteItem interface and the ProbabilityBlockPaletteItem and SimpleBlockPaletteItem concrete classes.
  • These classes will be used in the later implementation of the Block Palette.
• ModalTool.bindPropertyPane API function will now only bind a single pane to the tool.
  • Bound pane will be displayed in the layout drawer next to the tool rail on tool activation. It is recommended to update the pane state once it’s associated with the tool to ensure it’s displayed correctly.
• Added uniqueId property to IMenuCreationParams API which will replace IMenu id on creation.
• Added menubar: IMenuContainer property to IPlayerUISession. IMenuContainer will manage menu related operations.
  • Added getMenu method to IMenuContainer to return an existing menu item. Predefined editor menus can be retrieved with the new CoreMenuType enum.
  • Moved createMenu from IPlayerUISession to IMenuContainer.

Other

• Tool mode screen layout will now be using a fixed drawer system rather than floating window panels.
  • Drawers panels support drag to resize, expand/collapse, and show/hide behaviors.
• Changed top level menus to show up only when they contain items.
