How to display a file name on a text field c#

Question

This sounds simple but i'm new to Unity. i have a gameObject with an image component that displays different images. i want to be able to display the file's name without an extension in a text field. for example... The file's name: (Blue Car.png). Output: Blue Car (in a text field).

How can i achieve that through code?

This should do the job:

     Image image;
     public Text text;
     public void Start() {
         image = GetComponent<Image> ();
         text.text = image.sprite.name;
     }

Don't forget to add using UnityEngine.UI to the top

Now apply this code to the gameobject with the image, add a Text to your canvas and drag it in the text field of the script. Good Luck ;)
