EditorInspectorPlugin
=====================
**Inherits:** :ref:`RefCounted<class_RefCounted>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`
Plugin for adding custom property editors on the inspector.
.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group
Description
-----------
**EditorInspectorPlugin** allows adding custom property editors to :ref:`EditorInspector<class_EditorInspector>`.
When an object is edited, the :ref:`_can_handle<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__can_handle>` function is called and must return ``true`` if the object type is supported.
If supported, the function :ref:`_parse_begin<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_begin>` will be called, allowing to place custom controls at the beginning of the class.
Subsequently, the :ref:`_parse_category<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_category>` and :ref:`_parse_property<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_property>` are called for every category and property. They offer the ability to add custom controls to the inspector too.
Finally, :ref:`_parse_end<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_end>` will be called.
On each of these calls, the "add" functions can be called.
To use **EditorInspectorPlugin**, register it using the :ref:`EditorPlugin.add_inspector_plugin<class_EditorPlugin_method_add_inspector_plugin>` method first.

Method Descriptions
-------------------
.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__can_handle:
.. rst-class:: classref-method
:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **_can_handle** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object **)** |virtual| |const|
Returns ``true`` if this object can be handled by this plugin.
.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator
----
.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_begin:
.. rst-class:: classref-method
void **_parse_begin** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object **)** |virtual|
Called to allow adding controls at the beginning of the property list for ``object``.
.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator
----
.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_category:
.. rst-class:: classref-method
void **_parse_category** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object, :ref:`String<class_String>` category **)** |virtual|
Called to allow adding controls at the beginning of a category in the property list for ``object``.
.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator
----
.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_end:
.. rst-class:: classref-method
void **_parse_end** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object **)** |virtual|
Called to allow adding controls at the end of the property list for ``object``.
.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator
----
.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_group:
.. rst-class:: classref-method
void **_parse_group** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object, :ref:`String<class_String>` group **)** |virtual|
Called to allow adding controls at the beginning of a group or a sub-group in the property list for ``object``.
.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator
----
.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_property:
.. rst-class:: classref-method

Called to allow adding property-specific editors to the property list for ``object``. The added editor control must extend :ref:`EditorProperty<class_EditorProperty>`. Returning ``true`` removes the built-in editor for this property, otherwise allows to insert a custom editor before the built-in one.
