static def ObjectField(label as GUIContent, obj as Object, objType as Type, allowSceneObjects as bool, *options as GUILayoutOption[]) as Object

Parameters

label	Optional label in front of the field.
obj	The object the field shows.
objType	The type of the objects that can be assigned.
allowSceneObjects	Allow assigning scene objects. See Description for more info.
options	An optional list of layout options that specify extra layout properties. Any values passed in here will override settings defined by the `style`. See Also: GUILayout.Width, GUILayout.Height, GUILayout.MinWidth, GUILayout.MaxWidth, GUILayout.MinHeight, GUILayout.MaxHeight, GUILayout.ExpandWidth, GUILayout.ExpandHeight.

Returns

Object The object that has been set by the user.

Description

Make a field to receive any object type.

You can assign objects either by drag and drop or by selecting an object using the Object Picker.

Ensure that the allowSceneObjects parameter is false if the object reference is stored as part of an asset, since assets can't store references to objects in a scene.

If the ObjectField is part of a custom Editor for a script component, use EditorUtility.IsPersistent() to check if the component is on an asset or a scene object.

See the example in the Editor class for further information.

Search for a help page by selecting the GameObject in the Object Field.

	// EditorScript that quickly searches for a help page
	// about the selected Object.
	//
	// If no such page is found in the Manual it opens the Unity forum.
