Assign Text Colour Value

Hi

I am using Random. Range on few pieces of text, is there a something I can use to assign each word with a hidden colour value.

The text itself changes through a random colours but I would like to give word below a specific colour value which I can then use to relate it to a sprite.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.     public Text colourText;
3.  
4.     public string[] names = new string[] { "Red", "Yellow", "Blue", "Green" };
5.  
6.     public string GetRandomName ()
7.  
8.     {
9.         return names[Random.Range(0, names.Length)];
10.     }
11.  
12.     void Start()
13.     {
14.         colourText.text = (GetRandomName());
15.         colourText.color = new Color(Random.Range(0f, 1f),Random.Range(0f, 1f),Random.Range(0f, 1f),1);
16.     }
17. }

 

You could create a class for your color information. Try this:

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using UnityEngine.UI;
5.  
6. public class ColorInfo
7. {
8.     public Color color;
9.     public string colorName;
10. }
11.  
12. public class Test : MonoBehaviour
13. {
14.     public ColorInfo[] colorInfo =
15.         new ColorInfo[] {
16.             new ColorInfo {
17.                 color = new Color(1,1,1),
18.                 colorName = "White"
19.             },
20.             new ColorInfo {
21.                 color = new Color(.5f,.5f,.5f),
22.                 colorName = "Gray"
23.             }
24.         };
25.  
26.     public Text colourText;
27.  
28.     void Start()
29.     {
30.         ColorInfo colorInfo = GetRandomColorInfo();
31.  
32.         colourText.text = colorInfo.colorName;
33.         colourText.color = colorInfo.color;
34.     }
35.  
36.     public ColorInfo GetRandomColorInfo()
37.     {
38.         return colorInfo[Random.Range(0, colorInfo.Length)];
39.     }
40. }
