Anyway to Make an Object unselectable in Edit Mode

I am working on a project and one consistent issue I have while editing shapes using Probuilder is accidentally grabbing the terrain. Its extremely frustrating. Any suggestions?

 

Yes. In the left hand margin of the Hierarchy window there is a little "hand" icon that allows you to mark a particular object as not selectable in the editor. There is also an eyeball that makes it invisible in the editor as well.

I believe this is a new feature since 2019.3

Documented here:

You can also use the SceneVisibilityManager if you want to do it by code. Note that you need to get the singleton first like this:

SceneVisibilityManager.instance

 

THANK YOU!!!!!!

 

After I discovered this I realized that this somehow makes the editor freeze for a split second which is super annoying.
