If you click on Make Object ID, you’ll see {1#} get added to the contents of the variable.

and it will also show up in the Watch, Autos or Locals windows.

Then if you need to look at this object again, you can just refer to its Object ID as shown below in the Watch window.

And when you’re done looking at the {1#}, you can Delete Object ID from the context menu, either in the Watch (autos or locals) or from the DataTip.
