Question by nikiii · Apr 12, 2012 at 01:33 PM · keyboardguilayoutpaintguilayout.button

Change GUILayout.Button font color

Hi,

I have to create a strange keyboard and I have some problems...

GUILayout.BeginArea(new Rect(x,y,2*v/3,b/3)); GUILayout.BeginVertical("col1"); GUILayout.BeginHorizontal("fila 1"); if(GUILayout.Button("Q",GUILayout.Width(t),GUILayout.Height(t))) key='q'; if(GUILayout.Button("W",GUILayout.Width(t),GUILayout.Height(t))) key='w'; ....

GUILayout.EndHorizontal(); GUILayout.EndVertical(); GUILayout.EndArea();

I need to paint 5 letters in red...

How can I change the GUILayout Button font color?

Thanks!!

If you are using a GUILayout.Button instead of a GUI.Button you can use a GUIStyle:

 var style = new GUIStyle(GUI.skin.button);
 style.normal.textColor = Color.blue;
 GUILayout.Button("Label", style);

You can use GUI.contentColor to give a specific part an other color :

 function OnGUI() {

     GUI.Button("Standard Colored")
     GUI.contentColor = Color.red;  // Apply Red color to Button
     GUI.Button("Q button")
     GUI.Button("W button")  //...and so on for the rest Buttons
     GUI.contentColor = Color.withe;  //Make Buttons White color again 
     GUI.Button("White Colored Again")
 }

For information, the second solution works in the editor, the first only for in-game UI (which is depreciated and shouldn't be used AFAIK). :)

"first" and "second" are not good references on a page that is arranged by upvote count ....

and ProG$$anonymous$$'s Answer does work very well in the Inspector.

this UI scripting is also not "deprecated" .. it just is way esier to use the new Unity UI but if you like you still can script it all
