    I am using 2018.2 and [TextArea] is not working within a ScriptableObject. I am trying to get a textbox to show up in the inspector for the SO instead of just a single string line.

    [TextArea(4, 6)]
    public string inGameDescription;

    This shows just a single text/string line in the inspector.

    Do you have a custom editor gui for that SO that may be overriding that attribute?

    Something was hosed in the script, it was only like a 20 line script which no obvious issues but deleting it and redoing it fixed the issue, very strange.
