To speed up binding setup process, the system provides a pinning mechanism, which stores ready to use fields and objects.
There are 3 types of pinning:
Pin entire objects: these will be available with all their components and fields when binding
Pin single fields: these will show up in bind menu, with their subsequent deeper paths.
Pin field children: instead of showing the pinned field, its children will be shown. This is useful when there is a field that has its children changed often. Think of a struct with fields that can change during development.
To pin a field, right click on it and select one of the Pin commands:
Pinning has a 2 levels of values preview in Bind menu directly. This means that any path and its next level child paths have their values visible directly in Bind Menu.
To pin an object, right click on the object and select "Binding -> Pin to Bind Sources".
All pinned values can be seen in Binding Settings. In there, the pinned values can also be removed.
