Array of structures not viewable in inspector

Archived Forums Questions & Answers

Hi, I have a structure which contain arrays:

	public struct myStructure
{
	public Vector3 vertex;
	public Color[] firstColour;
	public Color[] secondColour;
	public float[] blendTime;
}

I am then creating an array of these structures. The issue I’m having, is that the vertex, firstColour, secondColour and blendTime variables aren’t viewable in the inspector, I assume because I haven’t defined there size, which I do later in the code (as far as I am aware I can’t declare the size of the arrays when I declare the structure?).

So is there any way to make these variables viewable in the inspector?
Thanks

That should be a class, not a struct. Also, http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/Serializable.html

Thanks for the response - can I ask why it should be a class? Thanks very much!

http://discuss.joelonsoftware.com/default.asp?dotnet.12.489354.15 Some of the more pertinent points: "16 bytes or less" (for a struct), "if it acts like an int, make it a struct". It's not always 100% obvious at first which to use, but when you're using arrays as elements, that's clearly a class and not a struct.

Much appreciated, thanks
