Retrieve default editor field / conditional hide field,
Is there any way to retrieve an editor field from the base editor when creating a custom editor? Ideally I only want to modify one field and am trying to do something like this:
public override void OnInspectorGUI()
{
//recreates default editor
base.OnInspectorGUI();
myField = base.GetField("myFieldName");
// do some stuff with myField
}
I am searching for something like base.GetField but I haven't been able to find anything like this in the documentation.
As I only want to edit one field, building a complete custom editor seems a hassle and a far from ideal solution.
My end goal is to have a conditional hide field, I am also open to other simple solutions, but am looking for something very simple. Of all the solutions I have seen, most involve adding long scripts to my project. It seems to be something many people are trying to do, I wonder if Unity will consider implementing a ConditionalHideAttribute for editor.

If you only need the value, use "target". That is an object being inspected, cast that into your known object type, then access the field from there. Example:
$$anonymous$$yStuff stuff = ($$anonymous$$yStuff)target;
int something = stuff.someField;
Also, an asset called Odin Inspector and Serialized has exactly what you need called [HideIfAttribute] and tons of other things.
