Is there a way to get an inherited exported variable to appear on top in the inspector?
Product inherits name from Item:
Product adds another exported variable products:
In the Inspector, Product and products end up above Item and name, as it should:
However, in some cases this is annoying. I would like to have the name field on top. Is there a way to change the order other than avoiding inheritance here?
You have 3 options from my understanding,
1: Use @export_group with a Lower Order Value
@export_group("Basic Properties", "", -10)
2: Override the Property and Make it Tool-Visible
@export var name: String:
get:
return super.name
set(value):
super.name = value
@export_group("Input")
@export var products: Array[Product] = []
Or and my personal choice but also more advanced:
3: Use Editor Script Category Hints
For more complex customization, you can use the _get_property_list() method to customize property order and categories
func _get_property_list():
var properties = []
properties.append({
"name": "name",
"type": TYPE_STRING,
"usage": PROPERTY_USAGE_DEFAULT,
"hint": PROPERTY_HINT_NONE,
})
# Add other properties...
return properties
There may be one more way but I cant remember off the top of my head
