Inspector

The Inspector lets you view and modify the properties of selected objects in the Level Viewport. Select one or more objects to display their components and editable fields. Changes made in the Inspector are applied immediately and reflected in the Level Viewport.

Expression evaluator

Numeric entries in the Inspector can evaluate simple mathematical expressions, which is handy for precise adjustments. Type an expression and press Enter to evaluate it. The special variable x represents the current value in the field. For example, if a field contains 2, entering x + 1 changes it to 3.

Revealing resources

Properties that reference resources include a Reveal shortcut that opens the Project Browser and highlights the referenced resource. The reveal action attempts to locate the resource even when the resource type is hidden or when the file resides in a mapped source directory that is not shown.
