Scripting a custom inspector.

Hi all,

I am making some small modifications to the built in Unity inspector for the Transform component. I am aware there is a DrawDefaultInspector() command, however this doesn't draw the default inspector in the same way, it actually looks more like the Debug inspector even when in Normal view mode. So, due to me being a little fastidious with how my things look, I set about just coding the same inspector look into my editor script. However when getting to the rotation, I've noticed it glitches. Sometimes in a static scene when I have just selected an object, I will see the rotation change slightly over time. In addition when using the option to adjust the rotation with the inspector, by click-dragging over one of the axis, the model flips about and generally freaks out, instead of rotating smoothly as with the normal inspector. Scale/Position work fine, so I guess it's something to do with how I set the rotation?

I also can't seem to set the rotation, for example if I enter 0 in an axis, it will sometimes snap back to something like 0.006835938 or 3.2 (oddly).

If someone could take a look and let me know how I could better this. I admit I don't actually know -what- the problem is, I was hoping to look at how Unity does it's inspector but that's obviously not possible, such a small thing and it's sucking up hours. :>

Thanks!

The following code:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using UnityEditor;
4.  
5. [CustomEditor( typeof( Transform ) )]
6.  
7. public class InspectorEnhancements : Editor {
8.  
9.     string transText = "";
10.     Vector3 transPos;
11.     Vector3 transRot;
12.     Vector3 transScale;
13.     Transform currentTarget;
14.  
15.     void Awake() {
16.         currentTarget = (Transform)target;
17.         transPos = currentTarget.position;
18.         transRot = currentTarget.localEulerAngles;
19.         transScale = currentTarget.lossyScale;
20.     }
21.  
22.     public override void OnInspectorGUI() {
23.         transPos = EditorGUILayout.Vector3Field( "Position", currentTarget.localPosition );
24.  
25.         if( GUILayout.Button( "Copy To Clipboard" ) ) {
26.             transText = transPos.ToString();
27.             transText = transText.Replace( "(", "" );
28.             transText = transText.Replace( ")", "" );
29.  
30.             EditorGUIUtility.systemCopyBuffer = transText;
31.         }
32.  
33.         transRot = currentTarget.localEulerAngles;
34.  
35.         // Wrap
36.         transRot.x = Mathf.Repeat( transRot.x, 360f );
37.         transRot.y = Mathf.Repeat( transRot.y, 360f );
38.         transRot.z = Mathf.Repeat( transRot.z, 360f );
39.  
40.         transRot = EditorGUILayout.Vector3Field( "Rotation", transRot );
41.         transScale = EditorGUILayout.Vector3Field( "Scale", currentTarget.localScale );
42.  
43.         currentTarget.localPosition = transPos;
44.         currentTarget.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler( transRot );
45.         currentTarget.localScale = transScale;
46.     }
47. }
48.  

 

Oddly, I've just noticed only the X axis click-drag method causes it to glitch. Though the errors still seem prone when trying to specify set values, such as 10, or 0, or something or even when I click Reset Rotation, sometimes it resets with non 0 values.
