Where can I see the materials in RenderMeshArray?

[davenirline]

The materials used to be displayed in the inspector but now it’s just InstanceId. Where is this placed now?

Only Serialized InstanceID is shown in the Inspector for managed objects

Indeed. That is broken again. I didn’t even notice. Sorry about that. There was some combination of the package and editor version where they fixed it to show the actual objects in the inspector while still using UnityObjectRef under the hood.

It’s bugged at present

I just wrote custm inspector for them long time ago and never had issues

using JetBrains.Annotations;
using Unity.Entities;
using Unity.Entities.UI;
using UnityEditor.Search;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UIElements;

namespace Door407.DOTS.Core.Editor.PropertyInspectors
{
    internal class UnityObjectRefInspector<T> : PropertyInspector<UnityObjectRef<T>> where T : Object
    {
        public override VisualElement Build()
        {
            var value = Target.Value;
            var name  = value == null ? DisplayName : $"{value.name}";
            var foldout = new Foldout
            {
                text = name, 
                value = false
            };
            var id = new IntegerField("Instance Id")
            {
                value = Target.Id.instanceId
            };
            var of = new ObjectField
            {
                value = Target.Value
            };

            foldout.Add(id);
            foldout.Add(of);

            return foldout;
        }
    }

Awesome! Thanks.
