Fixed UI on AR App

Hi All,

I am just beginning to use Unity and have created what I want in an AR iOS app. But now I want to have a UI overlay on the screen that has buttons and other information available, allowing for a 'window' in the centre of the screen for the AR part to be displayed (See attached image for diagram). This can just be an image but would like to have button and dropdown menu capability if possible.

 

Hello hamishryan6!
For starters, you would need to create a Canvas with Render Mode set to Screen-Space Overlay and then add your UI elements to that canvas as you see fit.
As you are just starting out, you would want to refer to the Unity docs, in your case: https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.ugui@1.0/manual/index.html

Hope that helps!
