How to drag a specific component reference from one object's Inspector view to another one?

Questions & Answers
1

I have a GameObject with two copies of the same component: an “on” Tween and an “off” Tween. I also have a TweenHandler component with two variables: onTween and offTween. If all three components are on the same GameObject, I can open the Inspector view and use my mouse to drag the “on” Tween up to the onTween slot in TweenHandler, and the “off” Tween up to the offTween slot. Everything works perfectly.

But if the TweenHandler component is on a different GameObject, how do I drag the “off” Tween reference over to the offTween slot on the other object? How do I switch the inspector window to the 2nd GameObject?

Assume I can’t touch the code. I just want to know if this is possible using drag & drop.

Ahah! That was fast. I didn’t realize you could have multiple inspector windows open.

Right-click the Inspector title and pick “Open Tab”. Navigate to object #1 in one Inspector then click the little lock icon at the top-right of the Inspector view. Navigate to object #2 in the other Inspector, and drag the “off” Tween over.

@sarahnorthway A faster approach: Right click on Inspector tab, select Property and it will pop a copy of your current inspector. If you select another gameobject, the property window won’t change so you can drag&drop nicely.
