static function CreateGameObjectWithHideFlags (name : String, flags : HideFlags, params components : Type[]) : GameObject

Description

Creates a game object with HideFlags and specified components.

This is very similar to creating a GameObject the usual way, except it sets the specified HideFlags immediately.

Editor Window that shows how does the example looks.

// Simple script that lets you manage the flags of an instanceID from a
// GameObject or lets you create a new empty GameObject with custom flags set

class GameObjectFlags extends EditorWindow {

    var objName : String = "GameObject";
    var instanceID : int = 0;
    var create : boolean = true;
    var go : GameObject = null;

    var hideHierarchy : boolean = false;

    @MenuItem("Examples/GameObject flags")
    static function Init() {
        var window = GetWindow(GameObjectFlags);
        window.Show();
    }

    function OnGUI() {
        create = EditorGUILayout.Toggle("Create a GO:", create);
        GUI.enabled = create;
            objName = EditorGUILayout.TextField("GameObject Name:", objName);
            if(GUILayout.Button("Create")) {
                var created = EditorUtility.CreateGameObjectWithHideFlags(
                        objName,
                        hideHierarchy ? HideFlags.HideInHierarchy : 0);
                Debug.Log("Created GameObject ID: " + created.GetInstanceID());
            }
        GUI.enabled = !create;
            EditorGUILayout.BeginHorizontal();
                instanceID = EditorGUILayout.IntField("Instance ID:", instanceID);
                if(GUILayout.Button("Search & Update flags")) {
                    go = null;
                    go = EditorUtility.InstanceIDToObject(instanceID);
                    if(go)
                        go.hideFlags = hideHierarchy ?  HideFlags.HideInHierarchy : 0;
                }
            EditorGUILayout.EndHorizontal();

            if(!go)
                EditorGUILayout.LabelField("Object: ","No object was found");
