2. Parts. The game object that refers parts used at the Storages Inspector window as children. The elements are disabled and added only to make it more obvious which parts the explorer has built.

Warning

Parts by themselves not works as stand-alone windows and must be assembled in a common virtual layout with a Storages Inspector component defined as hierarchy (or Virtual UI Hub hierarchy) root. The inspector performs role of behavior provider and manages operation between window parts.

In the demo the component does not require assignation of any child part over component. Entire parts implemented as separated Window instances connected to a solid layout by using of Runtime Workspace features.
