Summary

[Editor-Only] A system for formatting floats as strings that fit into a limited area and storing the results so they can be reused to minimise the need for garbage collection, particularly for string construction.

Assembly

Kybernetik.InspectorGadgets.Editor.dll

Namespace

InspectorGadgets.Editor

Base Types

Object

graph BT Type-->Base0["Object"] Type["CompactUnitConversionCache"] class Type type-node

Syntax

public class CompactUnitConversionCache

Examples

With "x" as the suffix:

1.111111 could instead show 1.111~x.
0.00001234567 would normally show 1.234567e-05, but with this it instead shows 0~x because very small values generally aren't useful.
99999999 shows 1e+08x because very large values are already approximations and trying to format them correctly would be very difficult.

This system only affects the display value. Once you select a field, it shows its actual value.

Constructors

Name	Summary
CompactUnitConversionCache(string)	Creates a new `InspectorGadgets.Editor.CompactUnitConversionCache`.

Fields

Name	Constant Value	Summary
_ApproximateSymbolWidth		The pixel width of the `~` character when drawn by `UnityEditor.EditorStyles.numberField`. static
_DecimalSeparator		The character(s) used to separate decimal values in the current OS language. static
_FieldPadding		Padding around the text in a `UnityEditor.EditorStyles.numberField`. static
_SuffixWidth		The pixel width of the `InspectorGadgets.Editor.CompactUnitConversionCache.Suffix` when drawn by `UnityEditor.EditorStyles.numberField`.
ApproximateSuffix		The `InspectorGadgets.Editor.CompactUnitConversionCache.Suffix` with a `~` before it to indicate an approximation.
ConvertedSmallNegative		The value `-0` with the `InspectorGadgets.Editor.CompactUnitConversionCache.ApproximateSuffix`.
ConvertedSmallPositive		The value `0` with the `InspectorGadgets.Editor.CompactUnitConversionCache.ApproximateSuffix`.
ConvertedZero		The value `0` with the `InspectorGadgets.Editor.CompactUnitConversionCache.Suffix`.
LargeExponentialThreshold	9999999	Values larger than this can't be approximated. static
SmallExponentialThreshold	0.0001	Values smaller than this become `0~` or `-0~`. static
Suffix		The suffix added to the end of each value.

Properties

Name	Value	Summary
ShowApproximations	bool	Should the fields show approximations if the value is too long for the GUI? static

Methods

Name	Value	Summary
Convert(float, float)	string	Returns a cached string representing the `value` trimmed to fit within the `width` (if necessary) and with the `InspectorGadgets.Editor.CompactUnitConversionCache.Suffix` added on the end.
GetExponentialFormat(int)	string	Returns a format string to include the specified number of `digits` in an exponential number. static
