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**\ (\ object\: :ref:`Object<class_Object>`\ ) |virtual| |const| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__can_handle>`
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**\ (\ object\: :ref:`Object<class_Object>`\ ) |virtual| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_begin>`
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**\ (\ object\: :ref:`Object<class_Object>`, category\: :ref:`String<class_String>`\ ) |virtual| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_category>`
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**\ (\ object\: :ref:`Object<class_Object>`\ ) |virtual| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_end>`
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**\ (\ object\: :ref:`Object<class_Object>`, group\: :ref:`String<class_String>`\ ) |virtual| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_group>`
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
:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **_parse_property**\ (\ object\: :ref:`Object<class_Object>`, type\: :ref:`Variant.Type<enum_@GlobalScope_Variant.Type>`, name\: :ref:`String<class_String>`, hint_type\: :ref:`PropertyHint<enum_@GlobalScope_PropertyHint>`, hint_string\: :ref:`String<class_String>`, usage_flags\: |bitfield|\[:ref:`PropertyUsageFlags<enum_@GlobalScope_PropertyUsageFlags>`\], wide\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>`\ ) |virtual| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_private_method__parse_property>`
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.

.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_method_add_custom_control:
.. rst-class:: classref-method
|void| **add_custom_control**\ (\ control\: :ref:`Control<class_Control>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_method_add_custom_control>`
Adds a custom control, which is not necessarily a property editor.
.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator
----
.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_method_add_property_editor:
.. rst-class:: classref-method
|void| **add_property_editor**\ (\ property\: :ref:`String<class_String>`, editor\: :ref:`Control<class_Control>`, add_to_end\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false, label\: :ref:`String<class_String>` = ""\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_EditorInspectorPlugin_method_add_property_editor>`
Adds a property editor for an individual property. The ``editor`` control must extend :ref:`EditorProperty<class_EditorProperty>`.
There can be multiple property editors for a property. If ``add_to_end`` is ``true``, this newly added editor will be displayed after all the other editors of the property whose ``add_to_end`` is ``false``. For example, the editor uses this parameter to add an "Edit Region" button for :ref:`Sprite2D.region_rect<class_Sprite2D_property_region_rect>` below the regular :ref:`Rect2<class_Rect2>` editor.
\ ``label`` can be used to choose a custom label for the property editor in the inspector. If left empty, the label is computed from the name of the property instead.

.. _class_EditorInspectorPlugin_method_add_property_editor_for_multiple_properties:
.. rst-class:: classref-method

Adds an editor that allows modifying multiple properties. The ``editor`` control must extend :ref:`EditorProperty<class_EditorProperty>`.
