Class TypeSelectorDisplayAttribute

Namespace: Aspid.FastTools.Types
Assembly: Aspid.FastTools.dll

Supplies presentation metadata for a type in the type-selector window — display name, group, tooltip and icon — or keeps the type out of the picker entirely with TypeSelectorDisplayAttribute.Hidden.

[Conditional("UNITY_EDITOR")]
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class|AttributeTargets.Struct|AttributeTargets.Interface, Inherited = false)]
public sealed class TypeSelectorDisplayAttribute : Attribute

Inheritance​

object ← Attribute ← TypeSelectorDisplayAttribute

Examples​

[TypeSelectorDisplay(
    Name = "Damage ×",
    Group = "Combat/Modifiers",
    Tooltip = "Scales incoming damage",
    Icon = "d_ScriptableObject Icon")]
public sealed class DamageModifier { }
[TypeSelectorDisplay(Hidden = true)]
public sealed class DelegateModifier : IModifier { }

Remarks​

[Conditional("UNITY_EDITOR")] keeps this metadata out of player builds. The compiler evaluates the symbol at the use site, so a type compiled outside Unity — a plugin .dll built by dotnet build — carries no usage at all and none of these settings apply to it, TypeSelectorDisplayAttribute.Hidden included. Declare the attribute from inside the Unity project.

Properties​

Group​

Gets or sets an explicit picker path, with / separating levels ("Combat/Melee"). null or whitespace keeps the type under its namespace.

public string? Group { get; set; }

Property Value​

string?

Remarks​

The path replaces the type's namespace placement, so the type appears only under it. Empty segments are ignored.

Hidden​

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the picker never offers this type — for types that are assignable but not meant to be authored in the Inspector.

public bool Hidden { get; set; }

Property Value​

bool

Remarks​

Assigning from code is unaffected, and a value already stored in a field keeps rendering. Not inherited, so hiding a base type never hides the subclasses meant to be picked instead.

Icon​

Gets or sets the icon shown left of the label: an EditorGUIUtility.IconContent name ("d_ScriptableObject Icon"), a project-relative asset path with extension ("Assets/Art/Icons/Damage.png"), or a Resources path without extension ("Icons/Damage"). Resolved lazily; null means no icon.

public string? Icon { get; set; }

Property Value​

string?

Name​

Gets or sets the name shown instead of the type's short name. null or whitespace means no override.

public string? Name { get; set; }

Property Value​

string?

Remarks​

Search still matches the real name, the tooltip still shows the full identity, and a generic type keeps its formatted arguments appended (Mod<Single>).

Tooltip​

Gets or sets the tooltip shown on the type's row; null means no override.

public string? Tooltip { get; set; }

Property Value​

string?
