    Hello everybody,
    I am trying to enable an external canvas with the click of a button in-game. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Attach this to a button and call TurnOnCanvas in OnClick.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. public GameObject canvas;
    2.  
    3. public void TurnOnCanvas ()
    4. {
    5.       canvas.SetActive (true);
    6. }
    You can modify this with a bool to turn in back off again if you need.

    Actually you don't need a script for that.
    You can use underlying method of GameObject:
