Handles.Label

Parameters

Description

Make a text label positioned in 3D space.

Labels have no user interaction, do not catch mouse clicks and are always rendered in normal style.


Label in the Scene view.

Note: Use HandleUtility.GetHandleSize if you want the handle to always remain the same size on the screen.

To use this example, save this script in the Assets/Editor folder:

#pragma strict
@CustomEditor(DrawWireArc)
public class DrawWireArcEditor extends Editor {
	function OnSceneGUI() {
		var t: DrawWireArc = target as DrawWireArc;
		Handles.color = Color.blue;
		Handles.Label(t.transform.position + Vector3.up * 2, t.transform.position.ToString() + "\nShieldArea: " + t.shieldArea.ToString());
		Handles.BeginGUI();
		GUILayout.BeginArea(new Rect(Screen.width - 100, Screen.height - 80, 90, 50));
		if (GUILayout.Button("Reset Area"))
			t.shieldArea = 5;
		GUILayout.EndArea();
		Handles.EndGUI();
		Handles.color = new Color(1, 1, 1, 0.2f);
		Handles.DrawWireArc(t.transform.position, t.transform.up, -t.transform.right, 180, t.shieldArea);
		Handles.color = Color.white;
		t.shieldArea = Handles.ScaleValueHandle(t.shieldArea, t.transform.position + t.transform.forward * t.shieldArea, t.transform.rotation, 1, Handles.ConeCap, 1);
	}
}

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;

[CustomEditor( typeof( DrawWireArc ) )]
public class DrawWireArcEditor : Editor
{
    void OnSceneGUI( )
    {
        DrawWireArc t = target as DrawWireArc;

        Handles.color = Color.blue;
        Handles.Label( t.transform.position + Vector3.up * 2,
            t.transform.position.ToString( ) + "\nShieldArea: " +
            t.shieldArea.ToString( ) );

        Handles.BeginGUI( );
        GUILayout.BeginArea( new Rect( Screen.width - 100, Screen.height - 80, 90, 50 ) );

        if( GUILayout.Button( "Reset Area" ) )
            t.shieldArea = 5;

        GUILayout.EndArea( );
        Handles.EndGUI( );

        Handles.color = new Color( 1, 1, 1, 0.2f );
        Handles.DrawWireArc( t.transform.position, t.transform.up, -t.transform.right,
	180, t.shieldArea );

        Handles.color = Color.white;
        t.shieldArea = Handles.ScaleValueHandle( t.shieldArea,
        t.transform.position + t.transform.forward * t.shieldArea,
        t.transform.rotation, 1, Handles.ConeCap, 1 );
    }
}

...and place this script on a GameObject:

#pragma strict
@ExecuteInEditMode
public class DrawWireArc extends MonoBehaviour {
	public var shieldArea: float = 5;
}

using UnityEngine;

[ExecuteInEditMode]
public class DrawWireArc : MonoBehaviour
{
	public float shieldArea = 5;
}
