Question by chrishall · Jun 08, 2013 at 02:00 PM · guiguitexture

How do I show GUI texture when I click an Object?

Hi I am creating a diary page system so when you click on a page, the gui shows up on your screen. How would I go about doing t$$anonymous$$s. I would also like to know how to get rid of it by pressing a key. Here is the code I have now:

 var diary : GUITexture;
 
 function Start (){
 
 diary.enabled=false;
 
 }
 
 function Update () {
 
     if (Input.OnMouseUp){
     if (diary.enabled){
     diary.enabled = false;
     }
     else {
     diary.enabled = true;
     
 
 }
 }
 }

If you want to show the texture if the user clicks anywhere you can do:

 #pragma strict
 
 var diary : GUITexture;
  
 function Start (){
     diary.enabled=false;
 }
  
 function Update () {
 if (Input.GetMouseButton(0)){
     diary.enabled = true;
 }
 else {
     diary.enabled = false;
 }

}

To only show it if you click on a specific object, attach t$$anonymous$$s to the object (w$$anonymous$$ch must have a collider):

 #pragma strict
 
 var diary : GUITexture;
  
 function Start (){
     diary.enabled=false;
 }
  
 function OnMouseDown() {
     diary.enabled=true;
 }
 
 function OnMouseUp() {
 
     diary.enabled=false;
 }

Thank you @robertbu your answer is very useful to me, I used Code To only show it if I click on a specific object, but I need to do more 2 things. When I click the first mouse click show GUITexture and disable First Person movement until I click the second mouse click to hide GUITexture and enable First Person movement again. Sorry I'm not programmer and I'm new here ....

or, you could make it so the game is paused when you click on it, plus a paper pickup sound.

 #pragma strict
 
 private var pauseEnabled = false;    
 
 var sound : AudioClip;
 
 var diary : GUITexture;
  
 function Start (){
     diary.enabled=false;
 }
  
 function OnMouseDown(){
     if(pauseEnabled == true)
             //unpause the game
             pauseEnabled = false;
             Time.timeScale = 1;
             AudioListener.volume = 1;
             Screen.showCursor = false;    
         if(pauseEnabled == false)
             pauseEnabled = true;
             AudioListener.volume = 1;
             Time.timeScale = 0;
             Screen.showCursor = true;
     diary.enabled=true;
 audio.Play();
 }
  
 function OnMouseUp(){    
             pauseEnabled = false;
             Time.timeScale = 1;
             AudioListener.volume = 1;
             Screen.showCursor = false;    
     diary.enabled=false;
 }
