Create a complex list view

This example demonstrates how to create a complex ListView.

If you want to create a ListView with complex data and bind the ListView to visual elements, do the following:

• Use makeItem and bindItem to bind the ListView to data, register the appropriate callbacks, and modify the linked data source as needed.
• Use unbindItem to recycle an element for the ListView and unbind the data.
• Use destroyItem to clear the registered callbacks.

Example overview

The example creates a custom Editor window with a list of characters. Each character has a slider and a color palette. Moving the slider changes the color of the palette.

You can find the completed files that this example creates in this GitHub repository.

先决条件

This guide is for developers familiar with the Unity Editor, UI Toolkit, and C# scripting. Before you start, get familiar with the following:

• UXML element ListView
• ListView

Create the example

This example builds the visual elements in the list from a C# script. It uses a custom CharacterInfoVisualElement class that inherits from VisualElement, and binds the custom elements to CharacterInfo objects.

1. Create a Unity project with any template.

2. In the Project window, create a folder named Editor.

3. In the Editor folder, create a C# script file named ListViewExample.cs with the following content:

   using System;
   using System.Collections.Generic;
   using UnityEditor;
   using UnityEngine;
   using UnityEngine.UIElements;
       
   public class ListViewExample : EditorWindow
   {
       // Gradient used for the HP color indicator.
       private Gradient hpGradient;
       private GradientColorKey[] hpColorKey;
       private GradientAlphaKey[] hpAlphaKey;
           
       // ListView is kept for easy reference.
       private ListView listView;
           
       // List of CharacterInfo items, bound to the ListView.
       private List<CharacterInfo> items;
       [MenuItem("Window/ListView Custom Item")]   
       public static void OpenWindow()
       {
           GetWindow<ListViewExample>().Show();
       }
           
       private void OnEnable()
       {
           SetGradient();
               
           // Create and populate the list of CharacterInfo objects.
           const int itemCount = 50;
           items = new List<CharacterInfo>(itemCount);
           for(int i = 1; i <= itemCount; i++)
           {
               CharacterInfo character = new CharacterInfo {name = $"Character {i}", maxHp = 100};
               character.currentHp = character.maxHp;
               items.Add(character);
           }
               
           // The ListView calls this to add visible items to the scroller.
           Func<VisualElement> makeItem = () =>
           {
               var characterInfoVisualElement = new CharacterInfoVisualElement();
               var slider = characterInfoVisualElement.Q<SliderInt>(name: "hp");
               slider.RegisterValueChangedCallback(evt =>
               {
                   var hpColor = characterInfoVisualElement.Q<VisualElement>("hpColor");
                   var i = (int)slider.userData;
                   var characterInfo = items[i];
                   characterInfo.currentHp = evt.newValue;
                   SetHp(slider, hpColor, characterInfo);
               });
               return characterInfoVisualElement;
           };
               
           // The ListView calls this if a new item becomes visible when the item first appears on the screen, 
           // when a user scrolls, or when the dimensions of the scroller are changed.
           Action<VisualElement, int> bindItem = (e, i) => BindItem(e as CharacterInfoVisualElement, i);
               
           // Height used by the ListView to determine the total height of items in the list.
           int itemHeight = 55;
               
           // Use the constructor with initial values to create the ListView.
           listView = new ListView(items, itemHeight, makeItem, bindItem);
           listView.reorderable = false;
           listView.style.flexGrow = 1f; // Fills the window, at least until the toggle below.
