ShaderForge | A Shader Editor for Unity | Game Engine library

UnityEditor class has ShaderUtil, which contains the following methods:

• GetPropertyCount - Get the number of properties in Shader s.

• GetPropertyDescription - Get the description of the shader propery at index propertyIdx of Shader s.

• GetPropertyName - Get the name of the shader propery at index propertyIdx of Shader s.
• GetPropertyType - Get the ShaderProperyType of the shader propery at index propertyIdx of Shader s.
• GetRangeLimits - Get Limits for a range property at index propertyIdx of Shader s.
• GetTexDim - Gets texture dimension of a shader property.
• IsShaderPropertyHidden - Is the shader propery at index propertyIdx of Shader s hidden?

To use it, you include "using UnityEditor" in your script and then access it by typing ShaderUtil.(methodname).

With these methods you can iterate through the custom shader properties. It's weird that you can't do this with GetProperties like you do on types, but this worked for me.

The type RANGE was a mystery to me, but what it does is it returns a float value of the actual value and ALSO the min and max values of the parameter so you know what its range is (because it's not a known type).

Please note that this is only for editor, so you have to use conditional #if XXXXX conditions around it, because UnityEditor class and this method won't work runtime.
