Question by hesenisgenderli999 · Mar 17, 2020 at 11:35 PM · uiinspector

Unity Inspector stuck on one object,Unity Inspector stuck on one item (Not locked)

The inspector is currently stuck on one object, and I can't focus on other objects in the scene. And no, the inspector is not locked, I also tried locking and unlocking again just to make sure, and no the problem wasn't that. What could be the reason for this?,I tried editing a scene in Unity today, and when I clicked on one object, it was focused in inspector. This is normal behavior, but when I clicked any other object on the scene, the inspector left focused on the same object. I tried locking and unlocking the inspector tab, and it sure wasn't the solution. Any other reason this could be happening?

Have you tried to restart Unity? To reset the layout? (top right corner of Unity window)

@Hellium , yes, it usually works after restarting the Unity (no need to reset the layout), however it's a bit annoying that it happens sometimes.

Answer by cassius · Sep 19, 2020 at 02:48 AM

I was able to reproduce this.

Using the "V" to snap vertices - if an accidental selection of multiple objects happens when attempting to move the vertice, and you then press Esc to cancel the operation (not sure if Esc is required to produce the bug), the Inspector will then hit this problem/bug. Restarting the Unity Editor is required to make it fully functional again.

Tested on Unity 2019.4.9

I still got this issue. $$anonymous$$ust be some key combo I accidentally press or something, but at least I have a working fix..

As poorly mentioned in an earlier post; find an empty space in editor scene View. Press and hold v and drag said empty space. That unfreezes the locked object every time!

This problem just cropped up for me, too. 2020.1.12f1 and 11f1

I can select objects in the scene view and in the hierarchy, but the inspector never switches to the new object. Entering playmode causes the selection to suddenly switch.

Has anyone come across a fix for this yet?

I suspect it's a registry problem, or something. I doubt filing a bug report will help, since Unity will most likely be unable to reproduce the problem on their end, even if you send them your project file.
