Unity Inspector - Detect when reference is set

Unity Engine
1

Hello everyone!
Is there a way, in Edit Mode, to detect when some object is dragged into a field or set?

Let’s say I have a script in the inspector, in this script there’s a field “Test”… When I specify a GameObject to this field, it will show some description.

Is there a way, maybe some event to subscribe to, that I can “listen” to the changes in this field? In Edit Mode, not Play mode.

Thank you in advance!

You can detect object field changes with editor script.

BTW then there is also OnValidate method, which will react to any field changes so you can run some code.

Oh , that’s perfect!
It’s much easier when we know what to search for.
Thank you again!
