Set Property of Text Mesh of another object
« on: August 15, 2013, 03:09:14 AM »
Hi,

I am wondering how to assign the Text Mesh component to a Set Property action on another object.

The problem is as follows:

I start with my FSM state selected, add the Set Property action. Next I want to drag the Text Mesh component into the Set Property action but as soon as I change to a different object in the hierarchy, the FSM goes away (switches to the newly selected object) so that I cannot possibly drag the Text Mesh component into my Set Property action.

When using an FSM in the same object as the Text Mesh, there is no problem of course :)

Ideas?

Hi,
you have to lock the inspector panel (little padlock)

Excellent! Lock worked (no padlock icon though).
