Hi, sorry I've been posting so many questions.  Your help and support has been amazing, and I'll make sure to rate you 5 stars!  I also apologize as this question is quite specific to me, and so probably won't be useful for other forum readers. I've been trying to make a new UI from scratch using 4....

Gotcha. That gave me an idea for a slightly easier solution (for my project). Here's what I did, in case anyone else finds this useful. Rather than making a new editor subclass for every child of Interactable that I create, I just made the dropdown menu itself its own component, exactly how you have...

I wasn't getting this to work right away, and realized that it's (I think) because my Interactable class is a base class, and I guess this code isn't playing nicely with polymorphism?

Also, great to know about reusing elements. Awesome. Ah, indeed I do see that from the Component menu per your screenshot. Even stra...

I'm a bit confused about how the UI works in 4.6. I just purchased DS, seeing that it said "Unity 5 ready". But all the documentation about the new GUI seems to be outdated or wrong (for example, when I do Add Component menu > Dialogue System > UI > Unity UI, there is no sub-menu for Dialo...
