[GetComponentInChildren] on a list shows list count to 1 instead of 2 (regression?)

repro: add a dummy script to both children, let's call it... Dummy.cs add a parent script FindDummy.cs [GetComponentInChildren] public List<Dummy> dummies; it will only finds the first dummy, this used to work then when i open the list in the inspector it finds both

This function is, well, poorly implemented yet.

The reason of this is, array/list relies on SaintsEditor to fill some value, and only the array/list expanded, the drawer can be drawn, which is the actual filling code can work. Well, at least in IMGUI (UI Toolkit expand it by default) it is this case.

This feature will be implemented later I guess. I'm taking a short vacation aparting from my work & stuff, so will be after that.

awesome! I'll just keep an eye out for funky populating until then

Hi,

this is now possible in 3.4.0 without expanding the array. I did not test on some very old Unity, but instead, I disabled the UI Toolkit to see the IMGUI result, so it's not guaranteed.

If you still have this issue, please comment with your Unity version (please give the full number, e.g. 2019.4.01f)

Roger that! I'll close for now.
