How do I show a Classes Vars in the inspector (Javascript)??

Question

Just setting them to public does NOT work. In t$$anonymous$$s example my test var is NOT displayed when a new instance of the class is created..

class ScrollListContainer {

 public var test:int;

 function Create()
 {

 scrollListContainer = new GameObject ("Scroll List COntainer");
 }

You seem to have an odd mix of JavaScript and UnityScript here. In UnityScript, you don't really need

class ScrollListContainer

in fact, it'll make t$$anonymous$$ngs a bit more complicated for you because if you do that you probably have to explicitly say that it's a MonoBehaviour, so you'd do:

class ScrollListContainer extends MonoBehaviour

Then, when your script compiles, you can attach it to a game object, and then your public variable will show up in the inspector.

you can instantiate gameobjects with the constructor just fine. Instantiating components with the default constructor is not supported. (use AddComponent instead)

Oh, good point - thanks for the correction. I mixed up components and GameObjects, so I removed that part of the answer.

Most of the time it should do it automatically, but try adding the System.Serializable attribute and explicitly inheriting from System.Object.

Nope. I tried putting extends System.Object but the vars atre still not showing up.

How are you declaring the instance of your class?

Hold the bus ... you are assigning to a variable that does not exist... scrollListContainer.

Probably doesn't show in the inspector because it hasn't compiled.
