    public override void OnInspectorGUI()
    {
        //The variables and GameObject from the GameObject script are displayed in the Inspector and have the appropriate label
        EditorGUI.PropertyField(new Rect(0, 300, 500, 30), m_IntProperty, new GUIContent("Int : "));

        // Apply changes to the serializedProperty - always do this in the end of OnInspectorGUI.
        serializedObject.ApplyModifiedProperties();
    }
}
```

## PropertyField(Rect, SerializedProperty, GUIContent, bool)
