I added Item property to Dialogue Entry template and all items in popup is not grouped


With ItemPopupAttribute it looks fine

So I made tiny change in DialogueEditorWindowAssetLists.cs line 90

names.Add(new GUIContent(string.Format("[{0}] {1}", asset.id, asset.Name), string.Empty));
replaced with
names.Add(new GUIContent(asset.Name, string.Empty));

Is it some reason to put Id before the name?

Hi,

Internally, references to items, actors, etc., store the ID, not the name. The dropdown menu shows IDs to remind you that it will store the ID:

It's not very helpful in my opinion. I made a field in Dialogue Entry template for designers to set when they building conversations, and instead of nicely formatted popup we've got a raw list of about a hundred of items, totally unusable Well maybe ID should go at the end after the name to keep nice formatting, or some another way to sort by ID.
Anyway, I'll keep my change then, no worries

That's reasonable. In the next update, I'll change it to put the [ID] number at the end.
