VerticalLayout

DrawGUI scope that wraps EditorGUILayout.BeginVertical/EndVertical into a disposable using block. Arranges child elements in a vertical column with optional style and layout options.

Definition

Namespace: Paragon.Editor Assembly: Paragon.Editor.dll

public static partial class DrawGUI
{
    public static Scope VerticalLayout(params GUILayoutOption[] options)
    public static Scope VerticalLayout(GUIStyle style, params GUILayoutOption[] options)
    public static Scope VerticalLayout(this Scope scope, params GUILayoutOption[] options)
    public static Scope VerticalLayout(this Scope scope, GUIStyle style, params GUILayoutOption[] options)

    private class VerticalLayoutScope : Scope
}

Remarks

This file contributes factory and extension methods to the DrawGUI partial class, plus a private nested VerticalLayoutScope implementation. The scope calls EditorGUILayout.BeginVertical on construction and EditorGUILayout.EndVertical on disposal.

When no GUIStyle is provided, GUIStyle.none is used as the default.
