Question by BobbleHead · Jan 05, 2013 at 09:05 PM · scenehierarchy

In the Hierarchy how do I find an object with a certain script attached

I've lost an object in my millions of objects as I haven't named it properly and it has a script attached that I wish to unattach.

How do I find an an object in the hierarchy with a certain script attached?

I tried searching; it yielded no results!

Type the name of the script in the hierarchy search box. It must be typed exactly, since the search is case-sensitive.

It doesn't work for me, using Unity5. Unable after Unity5? How can I get this work?

Works fine in Unity 5 as far as I can tell.

Doesn't work for me either in Unity 5. (EDIT: Just realized that results are displayed in a section ("Path: ...") that appears in the bottom of the Hierarchy window rather than within the actual hierarchy)

Still works fine in any version of Unity 5 that I've tried. $$anonymous$$ake sure you type the name correctly, though it's no longer case-sensitive, and that you're actually using the hierarchy search box.

Works fine for me. Type the full name of the component.

If you click on that tiny dropdown arrow in the text field the dropdown reveals

  1. All

  2. Name

  3. Type

If it is set to "Name" Then you won't be able to find any components including scripts on the gameobjects.

Self promotion here but our tool Hierarchy Search makes this and more complex queries super easy https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#!/content/107513

Search by:

  • Name

  • Type

  • Property Name

  • Field Name

Using partial or full names.
