Unity Property Drawer - Making more space

Question

I have a problem creating my custom GUI layout. I don't know how to make more space for my labels so they don't get on each other like here

I saw this post but it didn't help me. http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/542901/property-drawer-and-children.html

My code for Property Drawer is here:

using UnityEngine; using UnityEditor; using System.Collections;

[CustomPropertyDrawer(typeof(Level))] public class LevelType : PropertyDrawer {

 public override void OnGUI(Rect position, SerializedProperty property, GUIContent label) 
 {
     EditorGUI.BeginProperty(position, label, property);
     EditorGUIUtility.LookLikeControls();
     int indent = EditorGUI.indentLevel;
     EditorGUI.indentLevel = 0;
     
     Rect w1 = new Rect(position.x, position.y, 50, position.height);
     Rect w2 = new Rect(position.x+60, position.y, 25, position.height);
     EditorGUI.LabelField(w1, "Health", GUIStyle.none);
     EditorGUI.PropertyField(w2, property.FindPropertyRelative ("Balls"), GUIContent.none);

     Rect w3 = new Rect(position.x, position.y+30, 50, position.height);
     Rect w4 = new Rect(position.x+60, position.y+30, 25, position.height);
     EditorGUI.LabelField(w3, "Mana", GUIStyle.none);
     EditorGUI.PropertyField(w4, property.FindPropertyRelative ("Balls"), GUIContent.none);


     EditorGUI.EndProperty();
     
     
 }

}

You need to overwrite the GetPropertyHeight function and return the height you want it to use.

What do you mean? I linked you the scripting documentation on GetPropertyHeight. What specifically do you have problems figuring out?

I just didn't know how to write it in code, this was a problem. But after some searches I've managed to do it right. Thanks!

 public override float GetPropertyHeight(SerializedProperty property, GUIContent label)
 {
     return 50.0f;
 }

Some code to help with this. Kinda a hack way of doing it but it works.

 //need to set field amount manually if you add more fields
     private int fieldAmount = 4;
     private float fieldSize = 16;
     private float padding = 2;
 
     public override float GetPropertyHeight(SerializedProperty property, GUIContent label)
     {
         //set the height of the drawer by the field size and padding
         return (fieldSize * fieldAmount)+(padding * fieldAmount);
     }
 
     // Draw the property inside the given rect
     public override void OnGUI(Rect position, SerializedProperty property, GUIContent label)
     {
 
         //divide all field heights by the field amount..then minus the padding
         position.height /= fieldAmount; position.height -= padding;
 
         // Using BeginProperty / EndProperty on the parent property means that
         // prefab override logic works on the entire property.
         EditorGUI.BeginProperty(position, label, property);
         
         //first field of the drawer
         EditorGUI.PropertyField(position,data);
 
         position.y += fieldSize + padding; //offset position.y by field size
         savedData.id = EditorGUI.IntField(position, savedData.id);
 
         position.y += fieldSize + padding;
         savedData.id = EditorGUI.IntField(position, savedData.id);
 
         position.y += fieldSize + padding;
         savedData.id = EditorGUI.IntField(position, savedData.id);
 
 
         EditorGUI.EndProperty();
     }
