Inspector: Custom Controls Custom Editor for Items in a List

Problem 1

I would like to have a control that is basically a grid of check boxes. I wouldn't mind literally using a grid of check boxes, but when doing so with this snippet

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. public override void OnInspectorGUI()
3. {
4.     base.OnInspectorGUI();
5.  
6.     int rows = 3;
7.     int cols = 2;
8.    
9.     GUILayout.BeginVertical();
10.     for (int r = 0; r < rows; r++)
11.     {
12.         GUILayout.BeginHorizontal();
13.         for (int c = 0; c < cols; c++)
14.         {
15.             GUILayout.Toggle(false, "");
16.         }
17.            
18.         GUILayout.EndHorizontal();
19.     }
20.    
21.     GUILayout.EndVertical();
22. }
23.  

unity displays the following:


This isn't much of a grid.

Is there any method for authoring custom controls? I've searched the internet for a few hours but to no avail.


Problem 2

I would like to use the control mentioned in Problem 1 to display items in a List. I've tried making a class that derives off of Editor (and has the CustomEditor(MyType)) attribute, but this only seems to work for MonoBehaviours.

 

I can only help with your first problem since I'm a bit new to all this as well. Have you tried setting the GUILayoutOptions in your GUILayout.Toggle?

Code (csharp):

1. GUILayout.Toggle(false, GUILayout.Width(10.0f));

Something like that should work.

 

Very cool, thanks.
