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.

This is still an issue for me, I've been tracking this for quite sometime. All the above suggestions work, specially the debug which I discovered after a bit of frustration (prior to this thread).

Restarting unity corrects this for a period of time BUT if you have a large project, which I do, this is ULTRA time consuming and unfortunate.

I've noticed it occur after hours of working, or within a few seconds so I highly doubt it has anything to do with any specific functionality performed by users because I've had it occur under any / all situations and I'm not really using any of the above suggestions during these times.

I submitted a bug report over a year ago, then another, and another...now I'm here.

I've tried reinstalling unity, creating a test project, using different versions (current 2019.x+), all seem to have this issue occur eventually. I've been a unity user for some time now...this is a new "feature" that's not super appreciated ;p

...not to drone on, but it takes roughly 8m to open my project currently, by days end I lose no less than 1.5 hours fk'n with this (that's 11 reboots btw).

Hi, been trying to reproduce this issue again to screenrecord my solution which works 100% of the time. I'll try to keep this thread in $$anonymous$$d next time it happens.

For me, hold "V" or "shift" and drag over an empty area fixes this! Every time.

Ps: Anyone know why I can't reply to this thread? I've done it before....

If this is true I'll be extremely thankful, I'll give this a shot - I'm actually rebooting right now even, 3/11 today ;p

I've been fortunate these last few days, but as soon as this little gem resurfaces I'll be sure to try ur video example

I swear I've probably done so with my multiple encounters but at this point I'd try anything

Happens for me too. Restarting does not fix it. Happens every 10-20 clicks Now. Restarting used to fix it.
