MeshRender Custom Inspector to edit Sorting Layer and Order

Hey guys I made this editor script that maybe helpful to some one. It adds two properties Sorting Layer and Sorting Order like in the Sprite compoment in the MeshRender inspector, this is useful if you are mixing 2D and 3D elements:

TODO: Undo events

Edit: Fixed Sorting Layer popup field.

How it looks:

 

Thank you! Your code helped me quite a bit!

 

Hallelujah! You are awesome! Thank you!

 

Oh, this is so helpful. Unity, take notes. Or at least tell me why this isn't a thing.

 

Can't change materials on gameobjects with this script

 

omg thank you!!!

 

Thanks for this script! It works great.

But it also reveals that even though I change the sorting layer in Code, the object's sorting layer doesn't change in the Inspector (as shown by your script). At runtime, if I change the value in the Editor (using your script), then it works correctly. But I'm baffled why I sometimes can't change the sorting layer in code -- even when debug messages say I've successfully changed it. Even more baffled because most of the time I *am* able to change its value in code; just in one case I can't.

 

yeah thanks you. it help me save a lot of time
