Monologue

Hey,

I want to make a small box where a text should be in. I already know how to make a box:

Code (Javascript):

1.  
2. GUI.Box(new Rect(x, x, Screen.width, Screen.height),"test");
3.  

But how can I add a button in the box, so if I press the button, the box should dissappear.

 

Code (csharp):

1. public bool showBox = true;
2.  
3. void OnGUI() {
4.     if (showBox) {
5.         GUI.Box(new Rect(x, x, Screen.width, Screen.height),"test");
6.         if (GUI.Button(new Rect(x, y, width, height), "Close")) {
7.             showBox = false;
8.         }
9.     }
10. }

 

First of all thanks! How can I adjust both x, so the screen should be nearly 'full'.

 

You could scale it relative to the Screen dimensions:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. public bool showBox = true;
3.  
4. void OnGUI() {
5.     if (showBox) {
6.         var marginX = Screen.width / 10; // Fill most of the screen but...
7.         var marginY = Screen.height / 10; // ...leave a 10% margin on each side.
8.         GUI.Box(new Rect(marginX, marginY, Screen.width - 2 * marginX, Screen.height - 2 * marginY),"test");
9.  
10.         // The close button is 100x40 and centered at the bottom of the screen:
11.         if (GUI.Button(new Rect(Screen.width / 2 - 50, Screen.height - marginY - 40, 100, 40), "Close")) {
12.             showBox = false;
13.         }
14.     }
15. }

 

Thanks, but how can I also 'write' brackets in the text? Just like in HTML, C++ (CLI) etc.: \n

There's also approaching an error:

BCE0024: The type 'UnityEngine.Rect' does not have a visible constructor that matches the argument list '(int, int, int)'.

I tried to fix it, but I couldn't do it.

 

Does this work?

Code (csharp):

1. GUI.Label(rect, "Line1 \n Line2");

 

I already tried it.

 

Try this:

Code (csharp):

1. GUI.Label(rect, "Line1" + System.Environment.NewLine + "Line2");

 

As I mentioned, I've still a problem:

BCE0024: The type 'UnityEngine.Rect' does not have a visible constructor that matches the argument list '(int, int, int)'.

The new line is working though.

 

Sorry, I had a typo. The line should be:

Code (csharp):

1. if (GUI.Button(new Rect(Screen.width / 2 - 50, Screen.height - marginY - 40, 100, 40), "Close")) {

 

I also solved the problem before you posted it. Anyway thanks!
