Can I change a component's inspector title bar text?

Is there any way to change a component's inspector title bar based on the field values? For instance, if a reference is set for an object field, can I change the component titlebar to say the name of that object?

 

Hey @DiegoDePalacio, I have a script that takes a component reference from an object with many components of the same type. It's impossible to differentiate between then by looking at the reference field since they all have the same game object name and the same script name.

Example:
The object with many of the same components is called "Test." The script is called "Test Script."
All references to ANY of the components will all be named "Test (TestScript)."

Any help would be appreciated!

 

@DiegoDePalacio Thanks for the information! I'll give it a whirl!

It Works!!

 

This is now also possible to do dynamically based on member values using Component Names.

Here's my test code:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using Sisus.ComponentNames;
3.  
4. public class TestScript : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     public GameObject target;
7.  
8.     void OnValidate() => this.SetName("Test: " + (target == null ? "null" : target.name));
9. }

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class References : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.     public TestScript[] testScripts;
6. }

And the end result:
