Custom Editor Gameobject foldout C#

Question

Im creating a script to help me with animating a character in my game (Many pieces make it hard to animate), Im trying to organize my script some so I am looking into custom editors a bit.

This is the inspector at the moment alt text

And here is the inspector script

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 using UnityEditor;
 
 [CustomEditor(typeof(SpineAnimator))]
 public class SpineAnimatorEditor : Editor {
 
     private bool showBodyParts = false;
     private bool showBodySliders = false;
 
     public override void OnInspectorGUI(){
 
         DrawDefaultInspector ();
 
         showBodyParts = EditorGUILayout.Foldout(showBodyParts, "Body Parts");
         
         if (showBodyParts) {
             
         }
 
         showBodySliders = EditorGUILayout.Foldout (showBodySliders, "Body Sliders");
 
         if (showBodySliders) {
 
         }
 
         SpineAnimator spineScript = (SpineAnimator)target;
         if (GUILayout.Button ("Reset All")) {
             spineScript.reset();
         }
     }
 }

I am trying to put the sliders and gameobjects into foldouts, I already have the foldouts now how would I go about putting the sliders and gameobjects in the foldout.

Sorry! I got carried away at first! ;) Here is the correct answer to your initial question (Game Object Fields, Sliders)

 public override void OnInspectorGUI ()
 {
     MyClass aTarget = target as MyClass;
 
     m_showBodyParts = EditorGUILayout.Foldout (m_showBodyParts, "Show Body Parts");
 
     if (m_showBodyParts) {
         aTarget.m_RightLowerArmAngle = EditorGUILayout.Slider 
                 (
                     aTarget.m_RightLowerArmAngle, 
                     0f, 
                     10f
                 );
         aTarget.m_RArmLow = EditorGUILayout.ObjectField 
                 (
                     "R Arm Low", 
                     aTarget.m_RArmLow, 
                     typeof(GameObject), 
                     true
                 );
     }
 }

However, just for foldouts and sliders you don't need to do an editor script. The Unity inspector GUI + some Attributes will do just fine and you don't need to create the second C# file.

If you write something like this as simple public variables to your Monobehavior:

 public class MyClass : MonoBehaviour
 {
     [System.Serializable]
     public class MyClassRArmData
     {
         public GameObject m_RArmLow;
         public GameObject m_RArmUp;
         [Range(0f,1f)]
         public float m_RightLowerArmAngle = 0f;
     }
     public MyClassRArmData m_rArmData;
 
     [System.Serializable]
     public class MyClassLArmData
     {
         public GameObject m_LArmLow;
         public GameObject m_LArmUp;
         [Range(0f,1f)]
         public float m_LeftLowerArmAngle = 0f;
     }
     public MyClassLArmData m_lArmData;
 
 ...

...without any additional editor class, this will appear as

Thank you so much. I had tried to do it with the System.Serializable but it wasn't working, I was stupid and didn't have the public whateverclassname name;

You maybe can use this custom decorator https://github.com/giuliano-marinelli/UnityFoldoutDecorator for Foldout Group and Range Decorator for the sliders.

Cheers.
