How to change scale of a GameObject in run-time ?

Hello,

I'm new in Unity. I want to change scale (size i.e. width , height ) during run-time of a gameobject. How can I possibly do that? I've used localscale function it but didn't work properly. May be I didn't use it properly . Any help ?

Thanks in advance,
_Masudias

 

juste check localScale doc

Indeed, that should do it.

Masudias, do you know what to do with the given code?

 

I want a plane fit in any size of screen .

I'm not sure but this code may do like this
previous object is enlarged by 0.1

I've tried this code :

But it won't work !
The Gameobject became very large than it was expected !

I'm such a noob sire
Help me out !

Thanks

Use this for once

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using System.Collections;
4.  
5. public class NewBehaviourScript : MonoBehaviour {
6.      GameObject rotater;
7.  
8.       void Start () {
9.        rotater = GameObject.Find("Cube");
10.        }
11.     public void btnChangeHeight() {
12.       rotater.gameObject.transform.localScale += newVector3(0,50,0);
13.     }
14. }
15.  

While button is pressed (repeatButton)

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using System.Collections;
4.  
5. public class NewBehaviourScript : MonoBehaviour {
6.  
7.  
8.         GameObject rotater;
9.  
10.         void Start () {
11.                rotater = GameObject.Find("Cube")
12.          }
13.         void OnGUI() {
14.                 if (GUI.RepeatButton (new Rect (40, 60, 70, 21), "Height")) {
15.                 rotater.gameObject.transform.localScale += new Vector3(0,1,0);
16.                 }
17.          }
18. }
19.  

 

i tried your code and everytime it says expressions denotes a type where value was expected

 

thank u very much, I like this

 

I have a YouTube video about this

it only requires a few lines of code

 

its unavailable

Noob here, I think this is the easiest method:

Define the rigidbody of your object in Start(), like this:
playerRb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();

Then put this in an if loop. Adjust float size as needed:
playerRb.transform.localScale += new Vector3(0.05f, 0.05f, 0.05f);

 

That is definitely not the easiest way, using the rigid body is unnecessary. Instead, you can just write

transform.localScale += new Vector3(0.05f, 0.05f, 0.05f);

 

i get Non-invocable member 'Vector3' cannot be used like a method.

 

You named a variable of your own "Vector3". Don't do that, rename that variable.
