[SOLVED] Fields do not shown up in inspector (class inherits from a Unity Script)

Hey!

I tried to do a script that extends some functions of an existing script but I'm currently blocked on something stupid and I have no idea why it does that.

The script can not be more simple :

Code (CSharp):

1. public class UIContentSizeFitter : ContentSizeFitter {
2.     public float m_MaxHeight;
3.     public float m_MaxWidth;
4. }

Yes. Only that. I want these variables to be accessible from the inspector and I have no idea why they just don't shown up..

Any idea ?

Thank you

 

The parent class needs/must inherit from MonoBehaviour

Parent Class

Code (CSHARP):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class Test : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6. [Header("Variables From Parent Class")]
7. public string Text;
8. public int Int;
9. }

Child Class

Code (CSHARP):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. public class TestmyTest : Test
4. {
5. [Header("Varibale From Child Class")]
6. public string TestMyTest;
7. }

Result Using Unity5:

 

You need to inherit from MonoBehaviour.

 

You can also inherit from UIBehaviour, your variables are going to be shown inside the Inspector.

ContentSizeFitter inherits from UIBehaviour..

Code (CSharp):

1. public class UIContentSizeFitter : UIBehaviour {
2.     public float m_MaxHeight;
3.     public float m_MaxWidth;
4. }

This works.

 

UIBehaviour inherits from MonoBehaviour. Are you saying you're still unable to see your public variables in the inspector?

 

Okay, found the issue..

There is a ContentSizeFitterEditor and it doesn't call DrawDefaultInspector. So it only shows what the script ContentSizeFitterEditor wants..

So I created my own script too..

Code (CSharp):

1. [CustomEditor(typeof(UIContentSizeFitter), true)]
2. public class UIContentSizeFitterEditor : ContentSizeFitterEditor {
3.     public override void OnInspectorGUI() {
4.         DrawDefaultInspector();
5.     }
6. }
