Centre GUI.box

Hello all!

My question today is, how can i center the GUI? The code ive attached below centers it, but the GUI box changes size a lot. EG:

in the editor say it will look like this | Press E To open crafting bench |
But in the compiled project the text will be centred but the GUI.box will be too big.

Which looks kinda odd when id prefer it to stay small. Any ideas?

Oh and heres the code;

Code (csharp):

1.  var hasCollided : boolean = false;
2. var labelText : String = "";
3.  
4. function OnGUI()
5.     {
6.        if (hasCollided ==true)
7.     {  
8.       GUI.Box(Rect(140,Screen.height-50,Screen.width-300,120),(labelText));
9.     }
10. }
11.  
12. function OnTriggerEnter(c:Collider)
13.     {
14.        if(c.gameObject.tag =="Player")
15.  
16.     {
17.  
18.        hasCollided = true;
19.        labelText = "Press E to open workshop";
20.  
21. }
22. }
23.  
24. function OnTriggerExit( other : Collider ){
25.     hasCollided = false;
26.  
27. }

 

Here's the example: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/113438-Centering-GUI?p=1150803&viewfull=1#post1150803

 

I think there's something not quite right with your code if the box is changing size. Try this to center your Box :

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. GUI.Box(Rect (Screen.width / 2 - 50, Screen.height / 2 - 50, 100, 100));
3.  

And I'd Suggest that you use GUI.Label to display labelText. It would work better.

 

Thank you both! Dkozar ill look into merging my code c:

and intense_gamer that worked too! c:
