    Hi All,
    Just learning Uniy and don't know if I'm going a bit nuts. I'm writing editor tools to help design my game system, menuitems , EditorGUILayout ect. However all the examples just use hard code. Is there some interface ( WYSIWYG ) like say qt that I can use to design they lay out and it will produce the c# code for that layout?
    Thanks

    Unity doesn't ship with a design layout tool for creating custom inspectors or editor windows. However, if you decided to write one, there might be a market for it in the asset store.

    imho moving coordinates by hand forces people to think about the design more in advance, resulting in overall better GUIs. There's also usually not that much GUI that needs to be created that it'd have a serious impact on time required.
