Question by Frede1012 · Apr 28, 2012 at 07:22 PM · c#mainmenu

Adding some GUI to an main menu

Hello there. So i am trying to add instructions to my mainmenu when you press a button. But its not really working with my old mainmenu script.

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;

 public class MenuObject : MonoBehaviour 
 {
     
     public bool showGUI = false;
     public bool isQuit = false;
     public bool isInstructions = false;
 
     void OnMouseEnter()
     {
         renderer.material.color = Color.black;
     }
     
     void OnMouseExit()
     {
     
     renderer.material.color = Color.white;    
     
     }
 
     void OnMouseDown()
     {
     if(isInstructions)
         
     
     {
         
     showGUI = true;    
         
     }
     else
     {
         if(isQuit)
     {
         Application.Quit();
         
     }
     else
     {
         Application.LoadLevel(1);
         
     }
 }

}

 void OnGUI () {
 if(showGUI)
 GUI.Box (new Rect( 0, 0, 10000, 10000), "");
 GUI.Label (new Rect( 400, 200, 150, 30), "Instructions");
 if(GUI.Button (new Rect( 400, 300, 150, 30), "Back" )) {
 showGUI = false;        
 }
 }
 }

So that is what ive tried. In the box i am gonna write some instructions on how to play the game etc. But when i run the mainmenu. The button and the text is already there. It doenst toggle? Only the GUI.Box toggles?

You forgot some brackets, thats all ;-) (your if (showGUI) statement)

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class MenuObject : MonoBehaviour 
 {
 
     public bool showGUI = false;
     public bool isQuit = false;
     public bool isInstructions = false;
 
     void OnMouseEnter()
     {
        renderer.material.color = Color.black;
     }
 
     void OnMouseExit()
     {
 
     renderer.material.color = Color.white; 
 
     }
 
     void OnMouseDown()
     {
           if(isInstructions)
         {
             showGUI = true;    
         } else {
             if(isQuit)
             {
                    Application.Quit();
             } else {
                    Application.LoadLevel(1);
             }
         }
     }
 
     void OnGUI () {
         if(showGUI) {
             GUI.Box (new Rect( 0, 0, 10000, 10000), "");
             GUI.Label (new Rect( 400, 200, 150, 30), "Instructions");
             if(GUI.Button (new Rect( 400, 300, 150, 30), "Back" )) {
                 showGUI = false;       
             }
         }
     }
 }

I can`t remember how many times this has happened to me over the years, so you are not alone ;-)
