Hi,

I have been playing today with Editor customization as the docs explain and I just get compiling errors, etc… I have heard Unity iphone editor api, etc… is a bit broken is this true?.

Thanks in advance,

Yeah, I ran into the same problem, unfortunately. Many of the things that are documented don’t actually compile, and there are things that aren’t documented that DO compile. Unity 2.6’s editor scripting is far more robust (and documented), so we’re actually using it (with all of our editor modifications) and then porting to Unity iPhone for regular builds.

Unity iPhone = Unity 2.1. It’s not broken, it’s just an earlier version (as far as stuff like editor scripting goes).

Check out the documentation of Unity iPhone and you will get working examples commonly.

Unity Desktop stuff, as Eric5h5 pointed out, will often not work, as Unity 2.5s major change was a significant overhaul of the whole editor scripting

^What they said above.

Unity iPhone is based off of the Unity 2.1 editor and as such it doesn’t support the new editor customization options introduced in Unity 2.5.1. In the future we do plan to merge them and bring those, and other 2.5 features to iPhone developers, but we’re not there yet.
