Sure.  If you have a method called getEngine() which returns an  

Engine, you'll get an inspector for the Car which has a slot called  

"Engine".  Next to it you'll see a magnifying glass icon.  Click on it  

and choose "View" and an Inspector for the Engine will pop up in a  

separate window.  This works not just for objects but for collections  

of objects (Bags, arrays, ArrayLists, etc.) too.



What MASON doesn't have right now is a single browser-style inspector  

which wanders from object to object.  Perhaps an item for later.
