[SOLVED] How to programatically bind to script's property when clicking editor button?

https://stackoverflow.com/questions...pt-property-on-unity-edit-mode-not-at-runtime

For example, I have MonoBehaviour derived class called Foo:

Code (CSharp):

1. class Foo : MonoBehaviour {
2.    public Button lastButton;
3.    public Image []images;
4. }
5.  
6. [CustomEditor(typeof(Foo))]
7. class FooEditor : Editor {
8.  
9.    public override void OnInspectorGUI()
10.    {
11.        DrawDefaultInspector();
12.  
13.        Foo foo = (Foo)target;
14.        if(GUILayout.Button("Bind last Button and all Images")) {
15.           /* how to bind programatically last foo.GetComponentsInChildren<Button>();
16.              to foo.gameObject.scene's
17.                 foo.gameObject.GetComponent<Foo>().lastButton
18.              in edit mode (without have to drag on the editor)?
19.           */
20.           /* and how to bind programatically all foo.GetComponentsInChildren<Image>();
21.              to foo.gameObject.scene's
22.                 foo.gameObject.GetComponent<Foo>().images
23.              in edit mode (without have to drag all one by one)?
24.           */
25.        }
26.    }
27. }

I want to automate the binding without have to drag one by one or do it in runtime, how can I do it programatically on edit mode?

 

I'll do this with linq (any gc overhead people may argue about with linq doesn't matter in editor...)

So stick:
using System.Linq;
at top of your editor code file

then:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. foo.lastButton = foo.GetComponentsInChildren<Button>().LastOrDefault();
3. foo.images = foo.GetComponentsInChildren<Image>();
4.  

 

the problem is not about getting the components, but setting the property of the `Editor.serializedObject.serializedProperty` (now I know that this is the one I should set).
derHugo wrote an answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/57471388/1620210

 

So either:

A) you get the SerializedProperty from the SerializedObject. And you set the appropriate fields using that interface:
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/SerializedProperty.html
like you found on stack overflow

B) after setting the values on 'foo', if I recall correctly (mind you not at my dev machine to test right now), you should be able to call SerializedObject.Update:
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/SerializedObject.Update.html

So after those 2 lines I wrote just say:

Code (csharp):

1. serializedObject.Update();

That 'should' work. Since Update syncs the target object to the serializedObject.

Where as ApplyModifiedProperties goes from serializedObject to target object.

 

Yes, that question already solved ^^ thanks.

But I got another problem: https://forum.unity.com/threads/how...zedobjects-sibling-from-editor-script.727160/
