Hiding some fields in inspector with custom editor and inheritance

I have a custom inspector for a parent class in which I want to hide some fields based on a specific condition like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. if (condition)
2. EditorGUILayout.PropertyField(serializedObject.FindProperty("name"));

In the custom inspector I draw each field through the EditorGUILayout.PropertyField() method. However all the child classes loose their own fields unless I also draw them through the custom inspector.

Is there a way to keep the child classes untouched and still keep the changes from the custom parent class?

 

You can derive custom editor classes from other custom editor classes. Create an inspector for your child class that derives from the parent's inspector, add the fields which are unique to your children to it, and call base.OnInspectorGUI().

 

I think this would still require me to draw every field of every child class since at no point I am calling DrawDefaultInspector.

However, I stumbled upon this method: DrawPropertiesExcluding. This seems to be able to solve some of my issues.
