Question by Julijana · May 22, 2018 at 11:48 AM · androidtexttagsbrowserhtml

Need tip on better UI.Text control to control the paragraph alignment using tags.

I tried UI.Text with RichText option, but this control cannot provide paragraph alignment which is something I need the most. It is good to set the color for the text, and to make the text bold, italic, ...

I would need to align certain paragraph to the left, while the other need to be centered.

I checked the TextMeshPro, but I would like to avoid that.

So I am asking for any suggestions and tips if there is something that can output the basic HTML. All I need are bold, italic, color tags and most importantly the tags to align the paragraph.

Why do you want to avoid Text$$anonymous$$eshPro?

Because it adds about 3$$anonymous$$B more to the .apk file, and I would like to use out-of-the box solution if possible.

There is no "out-of-the box" solution. The rich text features of Unity are quite limited. If you want text alignments, you can use multiple Text components with the alignment you want.

If you don't want to use Text$$anonymous$$eshPro, you will need to develop your own solution or find / buy an asset on the Asset store for instance.

Build the HTML inside an XDocument class and then call ToString();

I don't think you got what is needed here...

Yes, this answer is not related with the question.

Apologies, I was focusing on the "something that can output the basic HT$$anonymous$$L."
