GUIStyle fontSize offsetting the text insertion cursor position (y)

Hi,

I'm having an issue when using any form of a TextArea or TextField where when changing the fontSize property of the GUIStyle for the TextArea the text insertion cursor's (blinking line) y position is offset.

I'm currently using Unity version 4.5.0f6 and I do not have this issue on the previous version 4.3.4.
Does this happen to anyone else?

To reproduce,

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. string text= "";
3. void OnGUI() {
4.      GUIStyle style = new GUIStyle(GUI.skin.textArea);
5.      style.fontSize = 36;
6.  
7.      text = GUILayout.TextArea(text, style, GUILayout.Width(400), GUILayout.Height(100));
8. }
9.  

 

Yes, you are not alone. The same here in Unity 4.5.1f3.

Case 622538

 

As a workaround, you can generate a new font that has the matching size for the style's fontSize and use that for TextArea and TextField...

 

I'm hitting it too. I don't see it in the issue tracker though. Am I looking in the wrong place?

I was seeing this issue in 4.5.5 and it is still present in Unity 4.6. Did that patch not make it to the 4.6 release somehow? All I'm doing is changing the font size of the text field. None of the other text field properties affect the cursor placement.

 

Great! Thanks for the clarification, I'll keep an eye out.

 

I'm still having this issue with 4.6.0p1

 

Thanks for keeping an eye on this! In actuality it seems like the text cursor is just the wrong size now, not off-center.

 

Actually part of the wrong size was a bug in my code, I misspelled the font I was loading. So it is the correct size but offset a bit like you said still.

 

Thanks I look forward to it. This bug has been killing me. Would rather not have to do a dodgy workaround!

 

unity 4.6.7p4 same issue.
