Clicking Trigger

Question

Hello everyone, thanks for your time!

I want the user to click the screen to get a message.(In t$$anonymous$$s case, where the user clicked). Now there are some buttons on the screen but I don't want the message to appear if the user clicked those buttons.

Is there a way to manage around t$$anonymous$$s problem?(so when the user clicks the buttons, there's no message popUp?)

Here's what Im using for the code:

     if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
         {
 
             Debug.Log("Clicking");
             dist = transform.position.z - _camera.transform.position.z;
             userInputPosition = (new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y, dist));
 
             userInputPosition = _camera.ScreenToWorldPoint (userInputPosition);
 
             Message ();
             //Send PopUp();
 
 
 
         }

You should probaly use raycast and check is mouse pointing to the right collider (trigger) and mouse button down at the same time.

 Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);
 Raycast$$anonymous$$t $$anonymous$$t;
 Physics.Raycast (ray, $$anonymous$$t, 5);
 if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0) && $$anonymous$$t.collider.name == "YourGameObjectName"){
 Message ();
 }

@Avash Is it possible to do something like:

!hit.collider.name == "GUI" ??

The problem I see in this is that If I add more objects(Which I was thinking about..) I must do a check for each object in the name area...

So I guess its easier to exclude GUI, but I don't know if GUI has colliders...

Make buttons in the editor, assign them in script and use onClick.
