Question by NoiseyAgent · Dec 13, 2016 at 03:15 AM · unity 5buttoninspectorbutton trigger events

Button OnClick not displaying in inspector

When I assign the OnClick from Start(), OnEnable() or Reset(). it does not show in the inspector. The event fires just fine but is not showing in inspector. The OnClick for the button still says emtpy after starting the game. In the code below the OKButton is assigned from another script. Its definitely not coming back null.

 public Button OKButton;
 
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start()
     {
         if (OKButton != null)
         {
             OKButton.onClick.AddListener(delegate { OKButton_OnClick(); });
         }
     }
     void OKButton_OnClick()
     {
         Debug.Log("Test");
     }

That is the expected behavior - listeners added via runtime don't show up in the Inspector but they work just fine.

Is there anyway to get it to show? Will the inspector show custom Events/listeners?

As is, no; why do you ask?

It would be nice if I could see it when working in the inspector but not too big of a deal
