Hello,

I Want to disable and enable a single member according to some enum int the same class.
My editor code is:

    void OnEnable()
    {
        myObject = serializedObject.FindProperty("myObject");
        myEnum = serializedObject.FindProperty("myEnum");
    }

    public override void OnInspectorGUI()
    {
        DrawDefaultInspector();
        if (myEnum.intValue == (int)someEnum.Custom)
        {
            EditorGUILayout.PropertyField(myObject,true);
        }
        else
        {
            GUI.enabled = false;
            EditorGUILayout.PropertyField(myObject,true);
            GUI.enabled = true;
        }

        serializedObject.ApplyModifiedProperties();
    }

And the Editable class:

[Serializable]
public class someObject
{
    public int val;
}

[CreateAssetMenu(fileName = "...", menuName = "...")]
public class QuestDefinition : ScriptableObject
{
        ... Other members
        public someEnum myEnum= someEnum.Custom;
        public someObject myObject;
}

The issue is if I dont add [HideInInspector] to myObject, it will be displayed twice, however if I do add it, the children wont be visible.

How can I achive the wanted result here?

One way is to not draw the default inspector at all. Draw only the custom inspector… drawback is that you need to “redraw” everything in custom inspector… but that usually is the case…
