    Hello, would it be possible to add a dropdown next to the address textbox in the inspector? Not having a way to set the group defeats the purpose of having a textbox for the address as we must open the addressable window anyway to set its group.

    Thanks!

    Good thought. It's something we've been discussing recently.

    In the next release, we're adding a "go to group" button, so you can at least easily find the asset in the groups window.

    Longer term we have been looking at adding a group dropdown, but have to be careful about how much real-estate we use in that inspector. One thing we're exploring is allowing the addressables package to take over the bottom of the inspector where you currently have AssetBundle settings. Since it doesn't make sense to use those settings while addressables is installed, we could use that space to have more interaction.

    So, good thought, hopefully the near term fix can help while you await the more complete solution. Thanks for the suggestion.
