Unity scripts to show dictionaries in the inspector

01_DrawableDictionaries.MD

Dictionaries shown in inspector

• Put DictionaryDrawer.cs into your Assets/Editor folder

• Put SerializableDictionary.cs into your Scripts folder

• Create a custom dictionary

[Serializable] public class CustomDictionary : SerializableDictionary<string, bool> { } 
// Set the key / value type that you want

• Modify DictionaryDrawer.cs (you should do this for each custom dictionaries that you created)

[CustomPropertyDrawer(typeof(CustomDictionary))] // Name of your class (same as above)
public class CustomDictionaryDrawer : DictionaryDrawer<string, bool> { } // chose same types as your dictionary

(Si on veut créer un dictionaire ayant pour clé un GameObject, utiliser à la place UnityEngine.Object, et on pourra le remplir de GameObject)
