GUI.Label

Parameters

Description

Make a text or texture label on screen.

Labels have no user interaction, do not catch mouse clicks and are always rendered in normal style. If you want to make a control that responds visually to user input, use a Box control.

Example: Draw the classic Hello World! string:


Text label on the Game View.

    function OnGUI () {
        GUI.Label (Rect (10, 10, 100, 20), "Hello World!");
    }

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
    void OnGUI() {
        GUI.Label(new Rect(10, 10, 100, 20), "Hello World!");
    }
}

Example: Draw a texture on-screen. Labels are also used to display textures, instead of a string, simply pass in a texture:


Texture Label.

    var textureToDisplay : Texture2D;

    function OnGUI () {
        GUI.Label (Rect (10, 40, textureToDisplay.width, textureToDisplay.height),
            textureToDisplay);
    }

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
    public Texture2D textureToDisplay;
    void OnGUI() {
        GUI.Label(new Rect(10, 40, textureToDisplay.width, textureToDisplay.height), textureToDisplay);
    }
}
