Array in OnGUI

Hi
I need a help, I wish to create a list of GUILabels on OnGUI.
I create list from Array , this is a script :

Code (csharp):

1. function OnGUI () {
2.     // An absolute-positioned example: We make a scrollview that has a really large client
3.     // rect and put it in a small rect on the screen.
4.  
5.    
6.         scrollPosition = GUI.BeginScrollView (Rect (20,10,440,210),
7.         scrollPosition, Rect (0, 0, 400, 800),false,true);
8.    
9.    
10.    
11.    
12.          
13.                      
14.         for (var value : String in arr)
15.        {
16.             GUI.Label (Rect (80, 20 + yOff, textureToDisplay.width, textureToDisplay.height),textureToDisplay);
17.             GUI.Label (Rect (160, 20 + yOff + 20, textureToDisplay.width, textureToDisplay.height), value,customGuiStyle);
18.            
19.            
20.            
21.             if (GUI.changed) {
22.          
23.                 GUI.changed = false;   // reset the value, so we can detect the next one
24.                 yOff=20;
25.             }else {
26.                
27.                 yOff+=20;  
28.                
29.             }
30.        }
31.  .
32.     GUI.EndScrollView ();
33.    
34.    
35. }

 

Yes? What do you need help with? Are you getting errors, or unexpected behaviour? Or is there something more you want the script to do?

 

Found this because I am trying to do the same, and OnGUI seems to be offended by my use of a for loop? I might be having an airgap but I can't reckon how to perform an action for each item in an array? It says "can only be called in OnGUI". This is so infuriating because it's such a simple thing to perform in Grasshopper Rhino. So, absurdly, fundamental. I need to display the mesh face indices, so I can write them tf down, so I can assign actions according to create an actually useful collisionFlag enumerator. For legibility, I center them on the face, horizontal to view. I just can't believe that through all this parsing information, mostly offered by volunteers, that Unity expects me to fork over 30% of profit when this is all said and done. At least I'm learning to code, which I might just take over to Godot. If I figure this out I'll reply with my code.

 

Sorry to hear you're having a hard time.

One of the ways to improve that experience is to post a clear question (possibly with relevant code) in your own new fresh post, rather than hijacking an 11-year-old post that shares perhaps nothing in common with your problem.

We know arrays can be handled in OnGUI because ... well, I do it all the time. Look at any one of my games.

If you would like to make a fresh post of your own to restate your question clearly with a small snippet of relevant code, here is how to report your problem productively in the Unity3D forums:

When you post code, please use code tags: https://forum.unity.com/threads/using-code-tags-properly.143875/

 

Like Kurt said, if you have a concrete issue, you should create your own post. I once created this IMGUI crash course on UnityAnswers which might be useful. I don't really see what could possibly be the issue with a loop inside OnGUI. As Kurt said, we use it all the time. I created countless editor tools that uses loops, like this sceneview camera preset script.

 

Thank you for responding, and so quickly. Yes, I had accidentally commented out a curly bracket. I still have a problem which does still seem significant re: face vertex stability & calls. PS: Hijack is a strong word for picking up a hanging thread. I'll init a new thread.
