Begin a GUILayout block of GUI controls in a fixed screen area.
By default, any GUI controls made using GUILayout are placed in the top-left corner of the screen.
If you want to place a series of automatically laid out controls in an arbitrary area, use GUILayout.BeginArea to define a new area for the automatic layouting system to use.
