The problem the cards are created at random position, but i want the card to be created at the left corner of the screen somewhere at -5,4,0. below is the script. need help...

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class autolevel_1 : MonoBehaviour {
     
     public GameObject[,] totalCards;
     public int totalColumns;
     public int totalRows;
     float widthOffset;
     float heightOffset;
     
     public GameObject samplePlane;
 
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start () 
     {
         totalCards = new GameObject[totalRows,totalColumns];
         createPatten(totalRows,totalColumns);
     }
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update () 
     {
     
     }
     
     void createPatten(int Rows, int columns)
     {
         widthOffset = samplePlane.transform.localScale.x + .2f;
         heightOffset = samplePlane.transform.localScale.y + .2f;
         
         for(int i=0; i<totalRows; i++)
         {
             for(int j=0; j< totalColumns; j++)
             {
                 totalCards[i,j] = (GameObject)Instantiate(samplePlane);
                 totalCards[i,j].transform.position = new Vector3(i * widthOffset, j * widthOffset, 0);
             }
         }
     }

transform.position is a 3d Space,i think you need camera.ScreenToWorldPoint http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/Camera.ScreenToWorldPoint.html http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/57546/3d-object-position-on-gui-screen.html http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/14404/create-an-object-in-screen-space-coordinate.html

Or the easiest way to use GUI, GUI.DrawTexture it has already screen coordinates. http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Components/gui-Basics.html http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/GUI.html
