Editor that draws all lists/arrays in Unity Inspector as re-orderable by default.

![ReorderableListEditor.gif](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6226493/53707244-0870ee00-3de3-11e9-8f00-e337539401ef.gif)

This is inspired by [Valentin Simonov's blog article about reorderable lists](http://va.lent.in/unity-make-your-lists-functional-with-reorderablelist/), with additional tweaks and functionality.

This custom editor overrides Unity's default SerializedProperty drawing for arrays and lists.  

The majority of the Editor code in this project is protected/virtual, allowing developers an easy to write custom editors that use/extend this reordering feature.  

  

The above gif is the direct result of writing the following code in a project that includes this lib.  

```csharp

[Serializable]

public struct MyData

{

    [SerializeField]

    private string _name;

    [SerializeField] [Range (0f, 1f)]

    private float _floatInRange;

}

public class MainContext : MonoBehaviour

{

    [SerializeField]

    private int[] _integers;

    [SerializeField]

    private MyData[] _dataObjects;

    [SerializeField]

    private ScriptableObject[] _scriptableObjects;

}

``` 

Notice the absence of any specialised types or attributes. This also works with public fields that Unity auto-serializes, though I personally prefer to avoid those.

## Installation and Usage

- Download the `Andeart.ReorderableListEditor.dll` file from [the NuGet page](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Andeart.ReorderableListEditor), or from [the Github releases page](https://github.com/andeart/UnityLabs.ReorderableListEditor/releases/latest).

- Add this file anywhere in your Unity project. Any sub-directory under Assets will work- **it does not need to be under an Editor folder**.

- Optional: Also drop the `Andeart.ReorderableListEditor.pdb` and `Andeart.ReorderableListEditor.xml` files in the same location if you're interested in debugging.

- All of your serialized/public arrays/lists should be re-orderable by default now. Go build some magic.
