LWGUI (Light Weight Shader GUI)

中文 | English

A Lightweight, Flexible, Powerful Unity Shader GUI system.

Having been validated through numerous large-scale commercial projects, employing a succinct Material Property Drawer syntax allows for the realization of powerful Shader GUIs, substantially reducing development time, fostering ease of use and extensibility, and elevating the user experience for artists effectively.

NEW: A more powerful Gradient editor than UE, with support for both Shader and C# NEW: Insert images directly into the ShaderGUI to support the display of complex documents without having to jump to the browser

Installation

  1. Make sure your environment is compatible with LWGUI

    • LWGUI <1.17: Unity 2017.4+

    • LWGUI >=1.17: Unity 2021.3+

      • Recommended minimum version: Unity 2022.2+, lower versions can be used but may have bugs
  2. Open your project

  3. Window > Package Manager > Add > Add package from git URL , enter: https://github.com/JasonMa0012/LWGUI.git

    • You can also choose to manually download the Zip from Github,then: Package Manager > Add package from disk
    • For Unity 2017, please extract the Zip directly to the Assets directory

Usage

Getting Started

  1. Create a newer or use the existing Shader
  2. Open the Shader in the code editor
  3. At the bottom of the Shader, before the last large bracket, add line:CustomEditor "LWGUI.LWGUI"
  4. Completed! Start using the following powerful Drawer to easily draw your Shader GUI
    • MaterialPropertyDrawer is C#-like attribute syntax, it can be used in front of shader properties to change the drawing method, more information can be found in the official documentation: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/MaterialPropertyDrawer.html
    • Each Property can only have one Drawer
    • Each Property can have multiple Decorators

Result:

You must manually Save the edit results, if there are unsaved changes, the Save button will display yellow.

When you move or copy the Ramp Map, remember to move together with the .meta file, otherwise you will not be able to edit it again!

C#

Example:

public class Test : MonoBehaviour
{
    public LwguiGradient lwguiGradientSrgb = new LwguiGradient();

    [LwguiGradientUsage(ColorSpace.Linear, LwguiGradient.ChannelMask.RGB, LwguiGradient.GradientTimeRange.TwentyFourHundred)]
    public LwguiGradient lwguiGradientLinear = new LwguiGradient();
}

Result:

image-20240717104144821image-20240717104206365

Default display settings can be set using the LwguiGradientUsage() Attribute.

Gradient Editor

The new LWGUI Gradient Editor integrates with Unity's built-in Gradient Editor and Curve Editor, enabling more powerful features than UE's Gradient Editor.

image-20241126110012922

Editor Description
Time Range The display range of the horizontal axis, selectable from 0-1 / 0-24 / 0-2400, is very useful when the horizontal axis is time. Note that only the display is affected, the actual value stored in the horizontal axis is always 0-1.
Channels The channels displayed. Can be displayed individually.
sRGB Preview It should be checked when the value of Gradient is a color to preview the correct color, otherwise it doesn't need to be checked. Only affects the display, Gradient and Ramp Map are always stored as Linear.
Value / R / G / B / A Used to edit the Value of the selected Key, you can edit the Value of multiple Keys at the same time.
Time Used to edit the Time of the selected Key, you can edit the Time of multiple Keys at the same time. If you enter a number manually, you must press enter to end the editing.
Gradient Editor This is similar to Unity's built-in Gradient Editor, but the Alpha channels are separated into black and white.
Note that adding keys from the Gradient Editor is limited to a maximum of 8 keys, adding keys from the Curve Editor is unlimited. Exceeding the key limit will not affect preview or usage.
Curve Editor Similar to Unity's built-in Curve Editor, it displays the XY 0-1 range by default, and you can use the scroll wheel to zoom or move the display range.
As you can see in the image below, the context menu has a number of functions for controlling the shape of the curve, and you can consult the Unity documentation to get the most out of these functions.
Presets You can save the current LWGUI Gradient as a preset and apply it anytime. These presets are common between different engine versions on the local computer, but are not saved to the project.

image-20241126105823397image-20241126112320151

Known issues:

  • Preview images below Unity 2022 have no difference between sRGB/Linear color spaces
  • Ctrl + Z results may be slightly different from expected when the editor frame rate is too low

Preset

/// Popping a menu, you can select the Shader Property Preset, the Preset values will replaces the default values
/// group:father group name, support suffix keyword for conditional display (Default: none)
///	presetFileName: "Shader Property Preset" asset name, you can create new Preset by
///		"Right Click > Create > LWGUI > Shader Property Preset" in Project window,
///		*any Preset in the entire project cannot have the same name*
public PresetDrawer(string presetFileName) : this("_", presetFileName) {}
public PresetDrawer(string group, string presetFileName)

Example:

[Title(Preset Samples)]
[Preset(LWGUI_BlendModePreset)] _BlendMode ("Blend Mode Preset", float) = 0 
[Enum(UnityEngine.Rendering.CullMode)]_Cull("Cull", Float) = 2
[Enum(UnityEngine.Rendering.BlendMode)]_SrcBlend("SrcBlend", Float) = 1
[Enum(UnityEngine.Rendering.BlendMode)]_DstBlend("DstBlend", Float) = 0
[Toggle(_)]_ZWrite("ZWrite ", Float) = 1
[Enum(UnityEngine.Rendering.CompareFunction)]_ZTest("ZTest", Float) = 4 // 4 is LEqual
[Enum(RGBA,15,RGB,14)]_ColorMask("ColorMask", Float) = 15 // 15 is RGBA (binary 1111)
    
``````
    
Cull [_Cull]
ZWrite [_ZWrite]
Blend [_SrcBlend] [_DstBlend]
ColorMask [_ColorMask]

Result:

The Property Value in the selected Preset will be the default value

RenderQueue is a Hard-Coded Property Name, you need to manually add it to the preset

Tips:

  • Tooltip may disappear when the Editor is running. This is a feature of Unity itself (or a bug)

Tips:

  • LWGUI uses a tree data structure to store the relationship between Group, Advanced Block and their children. In theory, it can store unlimited multi-level parent-child relationships, but currently LWGUI only manually handles 3-level parent-child relationships, which means you can put an Advanced Block in a Group, but a Group cannot be placed in an Advanced Block.

Hidden

/// Similar to HideInInspector(), the difference is that Hidden() can be unhidden through the Display Mode button.
public HiddenDecorator()

ReadOnly

/// Set the property to read-only.
public ReadOnlyDecorator()

ShowIf

/// Control the show or hide of a single or a group of properties based on multiple conditions.
/// logicalOperator: And | Or (Default: And).
/// propName: Target Property Name used for comparison.
/// compareFunction: Less (L) | Equal (E) | LessEqual (LEqual / LE) | Greater (G) | NotEqual (NEqual / NE) | GreaterEqual (GEqual / GE).
/// value: Target Property Value used for comparison.
public ShowIfDecorator(string propName, string comparisonMethod, float value) : this("And", propName, comparisonMethod, value) { }
public ShowIfDecorator(string logicalOperator, string propName, string compareFunction, float value)

Example:

[ShowIf(_enum, Equal, 1)]
[Title(ShowIf Main Samples)]
[Main(GroupName)] _group ("Group", float) = 0
[Sub(GroupName)] _float ("Float", float) = 0
[Sub(GroupName)] _Tex ("Tex", 2D) = "white" { }

...

[SubTitle(Group1, Conditional Display Samples       Enum)]
[KWEnum(Group1, Name 1, _KEY1, Name 2, _KEY2, Name 3, _KEY3)] _enum ("KWEnum", float) = 0
[Sub(Group1)][ShowIf(_enum, Equal, 0)] _key1_Float1 ("Key1 Float", float) = 0
[Sub(Group1)][ShowIf(_enum, Equal, 1)] _key2_Float2 ("Key2 Float", float) = 0
[SubIntRange(Group1)][ShowIf(_enum, Equal, 2)] _key3_Int_Range ("Key3 Int Range", Range(0, 10)) = 0
[ShowIf(_enum, Equal, 0)][ShowIf(Or, _enum, Equal, 2)]
[SubPowerSlider(Group1, 3)] _key13_PowerSlider ("Key1 or Key3 Power Slider", Range(0, 1)) = 0

Custom Shader GUI

Custom Header and Footer

image-20230821211652918

  1. Custom Headers and Footers enable you to integrate bespoke modules at the top or bottom of the ShaderGUI without altering LWGUI plugin code.

  2. Depending on the desired location for the custom GUI, duplicate the following script into an Editor folder within your project:

    • Top: Packages/com.jasonma.lwgui/Editor/CustomGUISample/CustomHeader.cs
    • Bottom: Packages/com.jasonma.lwgui/Editor/CustomGUISample/CustomFooter.cs
  3. Modify the file name and class name accordingly.

  4. Implement your custom GUI code within the DoCustomHeader() / DoCustomFooter() functions.

  5. It is advisable to examine the lwgui object definition to obtain any requisite data.
