Methods

FindParameterOverride<TValue>(Expression<Func<T, TValue>>)

Find a serialized parameter override using an expression instead of a string. This is safer as it helps avoiding typos and make code refactoring easier.

Declaration
protected SerializedParameterOverride FindParameterOverride<TValue>(Expression<Func<T, TValue>> expr)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Expression<System.Func<T, TValue>> expr

The expression to parse to reach the parameter override
Returns
Type Description
SerializedParameterOverride

A SerializedParameterOverride or null if none was found
Type Parameters
Name Description
TValue

The serialized value type
Examples
[Serializable]
public class MyEffect : PostProcessEffectSettings
{
    public FloatParameter myParameter = new FloatParameter { value = 1f };
}

[PostProcessEditor(typeof(MyEffect))]
public class MyEffectEditor : PostProcessEffectEditor<MyEffect>
{
    SerializedParameterOverride m_MyParameter;

    public override void OnEnable()
    {
        m_MyParameter = FindParameterOverride(x => x.myParameter);
    }
}

FindProperty<TValue>(Expression<Func<T, TValue>>)

Find a serialized property using an expression instead of a string. This is safer as it helps avoiding typos and make code refactoring easier.

Declaration
protected SerializedProperty FindProperty<TValue>(Expression<Func<T, TValue>> expr)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Expression<System.Func<T, TValue>> expr

The expression to parse to reach the property
Returns
Type Description
SerializedProperty

A or null if none was found
Type Parameters
Name Description
TValue

The serialized value type
Remarks

If you're trying to retrieve a SerializedParameterOverride, you should use FindParameterOverride<TValue>(Expression<Func<T, TValue>>) instead.

Examples
[Serializable]
public class MyEffect : PostProcessEffectSettings
{
    public float myParameter = 1f;
}

[PostProcessEditor(typeof(MyEffect))]
public class MyEffectEditor : PostProcessEffectEditor<MyEffect>
{
    SerializedProperty m_MyParameter;

    public override void OnEnable()
    {
        m_MyParameter = FindProperty(x => x.myParameter);
    }
}
