Custom editor button

Hi, is there a way to add elements like button etc. to this pannel?

 

There's a video from one of the unite events called advanced editor scripting, the dude shows you how to use reflection to do things within the editor like you want. So the answer to your question is yes you can do it as far as Im aware

 

thnx, will check it up

 

Really? I checked how it's done inside, and it's all internal methods. Do you have a link to that dude who manage to add button there?

 

Sure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=itkm-emb5tg#t=3253

He doesn't actually show you how to do it but he talks about it, and if you watch the entire video he shows you how to use reflection to do things in the editor that aren't easily accessible

 

Trust me, I know how powerful reflection is... However, there's limit to it without falling into method injection.

ARG! I just wasted I dunno how much time watching that video...

 

So there is no a simple way to do something like this? To be honest, I don't know what is reflection and how to use it in this case, should I just forget about this idea?

 

Yeah... No.

How many times have you done method hooking/injection on Unity's library?

Just the GAC part is giving headache.

 

I managed to do it... But I probably ended up breaking just about every possible user agreements in existence. I'm 100% sure it could never be released on the Asset Store.

Combination of CIL injection with event reflection.

Right now, I can only add stuff on top of the existing items.

 

Oh it looks so weird ha! Just looks wrong, awesome for figuring it out tho

 

Maybe it looks weird because I didn't work much into placing the buttons properly.

 

Ha I didn't even mean it like that, I'm just so used to that area being empty, been using unity too long ha!

 

Awesome! Any chance you will share this?

 

I'm not sure yet how I would package that. Frankly, it's probably more related to a jailbreak than anything else.

Basically, I create a .exe that take UnityEditor.dll and add stuff in it. In every class that has a OnGUI method, I added a OnBeforeGUI and OnAfterGUI events at the start and at the end of the method.

This way, even if the class is internal, sealed or whatever, I can register a delegate to those events by reflection and draw stuff before and after the internal OnGUI.

Now that I got my hand into editing an existing DLL, I just wonder how much I can go edit in there. Since I have access to every single OnGUI, I could basically add stuff... well... everywhere.

Maybe it could be an open source project, because I sure can't sell that on the Asset Store.
