public var exposedReferenceValue: Object;
public Object exposedReferenceValue;

Description

A reference to another Object in the Scene. This reference is resolved in the context of the SerializedObject containing the SerializedProperty.

See Also: propertyType, SerializedPropertyType.ObjectReference, SerializedObject.context.

#pragma strict
public class SerializedPropertyTest extends MonoBehaviour {
	public var mComponent1: Object;
	public var mComponent2: Object;
	function Start() {
		var timeline: var = Resources.Load("myTimeline");
		var so1: var = new SerializedObject(timeline, mComponent1);
		var so2: var = new SerializedObject(timeline, mComponent2);
		var theCamera: var = so1.FindProperty("sceneCamera").exposedReferenceValue;
		var anotherCamera: var = so2.FindProperty("sceneCamera").exposedReferenceValue;
	}
}
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;

public class SerializedPropertyTest : MonoBehaviour
{
    public Object mComponent1;
    public Object mComponent2;

    void Start()
    {
        var timeline = Resources.Load("myTimeline");
        var so1 = new SerializedObject(timeline, mComponent1);
        var so2 = new SerializedObject(timeline, mComponent2);

        var theCamera = so1.FindProperty("sceneCamera").exposedReferenceValue;
        var anotherCamera = so2.FindProperty("sceneCamera").exposedReferenceValue;
    }
}

In this example, the same asset is loaded into two different contexts, `mComponent1` and `mComponent2`. The same object (called “sceneCamera”) in each context resolves to a different reference to a different Camera Object.
