CustomPropertyDrawer for List problems

Hi,

I'm trying to create a CustomPropertyDrawer for Lists and so far, nothing works. Here is what I've tried so far:
- Create an Attribute to tag the List
- Create a CustomPropertyDrawer for that Attribute
- Fail miserably

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. [MyCoolList]
3. public List<string> theList = new List<string>();
4.  

In the CustomPropertyDrawer I tried to put a simple Debug.Log to see if at least the drawer is created, but the message never appears.

Code (CSharp):

1.         public override VisualElement CreatePropertyGUI(SerializedProperty property)
2.         {
3.            
4.             Debug.Log(property);
5.         }

However, if instead of creating a List, I do something like this:

Code (CSharp):

1.         public class WhateverList : List<string> {}
2.         [MyCoolList]
3.         public WhateverList theList = new WhateverList();

I see the Debug.Log message. That lead's me to think that right now, the PropertyDrawer for Lists is hardcoded and can't be overridden.

I really don't want to create a new class every time I want to draw a list with my custom drawer.
Can you help me?

Thanks!

 

Oh, good to know, I was going crazy trying things

Will try to combine UI Toolkit with IMGUI to overcome this temporal limitation.

Thanks a lot @uDamian!
