is a panel for adjusting

以物件來說, 檢視裡會有標題欄位

settings for any object,

一個可以設定物件為靜態的勾選框

asset and editor preference.

靜態物件才會被光照貼圖(Lightmapping) 和導航網格(Navigation Mesh)納入運算

For objects, the inspector begins with a title,

再來是標籤(Tag)和圖層(Layer)下拉選單

a check box for you to check if the

標籤允許對單一或多個物件貼標籤 以方便在程式裡呼叫與應用

state of the object will remain static in the game.

而圖層允許你將物件群組化 並規範像是光源或碰撞的規則

This means it's a valid candidate for

在這些屬性底下 是依附在物件上的各種元件

light mapping and navigation mesh baking.

第一個是Transform

And then the tag and layer drop-downs.

物件預設的座標, 旋轉和縮放比例

Tags allow you to assign a tag to

檢視裡的元件可以利用不同方式來調整其欄位

one or many objects in order to address them via code.

你可以在數值上拖曳來進行變動

Whilst layers allow you to group objects

也可以點擊後輸入數值

and apply certain rules to these layers

或是利用右邊的齒輪選項來重置數值

such as lighting or collision rules.

除此之外,在齒輪的左方 有一個藍色書本的按鈕

After these elements the inspector then lists

你可以點選書本 來開啟元件的說明文件

the components attached to an object.

檢視內容會即時顯示選取的資訊

Beginning with the transform,

代表在調整任何資源時 你可以很快速的找到資源並調整

the default position, rotation and scale

由於Unity可以用拖放來設定數值 有時會不小心點到不相干的資源

of your object.

會被切換不相干資源的檢視 而不是你想要檢視的內容

On any component the inspector allows

因此你可以將目前的檢視鎖定 然後完成設定之後再把檢視解鎖

you to adjust fields in various ways.

舉例來說，我要為遊戲的 物件腳本元件指定群組貼圖

You can drag over the values,

但當我點選了第一個貼圖時 我希望檢視的內容停留在遊戲物件

you can click and retype,

而不要切換到材質設定

or your can choose to reset the values using

我可以按住滑鼠左鍵並將貼圖拖過去

the cog icon to the right of the component.

或者可以先點選遊戲物件 然後點選檢視上方的鎖定圖示

In addition to the cog there is also a link

接下來不管我怎麼點選貼圖 檢視裡的內容也不會進行切換

to the reference material on the component

完成之後再按一下鎖定圖示即可解開

and you can get to this by clicking the

檢視就會恢復原來的功能

blue book icon, and this will open the

檢視裡也提供資源的搜尋

documentation page on this component.

例如材質

A context sensitive panel, the inspector changes

當點選著色器(Renderer)指定的貼圖資源 你可以看到資源在專案裡的位置

to whatever you have selected,

該資源也會用黃色外框標記起來 讓你可以快速搜尋到物件的關連資源

meaning that you can adjust any object

在這個範例裡 我們看到一個物件著色器指定了一個材質

and immediately dive in to settings and back.

而在檢視的下方可以預覽材質的設定

Because Unity makes use of dragging and dropping to assign values

我可以直接在檢視裡編輯材質

sometimes you may click on items

其他兩個我沒有選到的物件 因為使用相同的材質所以也跟著改變

that take you to their settings,

所以必須要注意我所調整的材質 是專案內的原始資源

rather than the one you wish to apply them to.

而不是一個實體物件

And for this reason you can lock the inspector

因此當我調整實體物件縮放比例 其他物件的縮放比例則不會變動

in order to work with a particular item

檢視裡的元件可以透過 點選名稱左邊的勾選框來關閉

and then unlock once you are done assigning settings.

同樣的，檢視裡的物件也可以透過 選物件名稱左邊的勾選框來關閉

For example on this game object I have a script component

當物件被關閉時 你會發現他們的名稱在階層裡會變為灰色

to which I must assign an array of textures.

以上是檢視的基本功能說明

But when I select my first texture I want the inspector

to remain on my game object,

rather than showing the texture's settings.

I could simply hold down the mouse

or I can simply select the object

and click on the lock at the top of the inspector.

This way when I select one or many textures

I can then drag and drop without the inspector changing focus.

Once I am done with this I simply click the lock again

and I can then select anything that I need to.

The inspector also offers a way of finding assets used on objects.

For example materials.

When clicking on an asset used within a renderer

you can see that asset highlighted inside the project panel.

It does this by highlighting with a yellow outline.

This helps you easily find the assets that your

game objects depend upon.

In this example we can see an object that has a material

assigned to it's renderer.

This particular material is then previewed

at the bottom of the inspector

and I can adjust that material directly from here.

However, the other two objects that I don't have selected

also use this material, so I must bare in mind that

the actual material I am adjusting

is the original material asset inside the project

and not a particular instance of an object

in the same way that I can adjust the scale of this object

without adjusting any other objects that

also have a scale value.

Components within the inspector can also be disabled

by clicking the checkbox to the left of their name.

And the entire object can be disabled by clicking

the checkbox next to it's name

at the top of the inspector.

When objects are disabled in this way

you'll notice that their name is greyed out

inside the hierarchy panel.

And that's the basics of the inspector in Unity.
