Question by jimfleming · Jan 23, 2015 at 10:51 PM · editoreditorwindoweditorguitextfieldeditorguilayout

Fix editor TextField cursor alignment

Whenever I increase the font size of my TextField it makes the cursor and highlight shift down. Is there a way to fix this?

alt text alt text

I'm using this custom GUIStyle:

   MyStyle = new GUIStyle(EditorStyles.textField);
   MyStyle.fixedHeight = 64;
   MyStyle.alignment = TextAnchor.MiddleLeft;
   MyStyle.fontSize = 32;

And I'm rendering the TextField like this:

   query = EditorGUILayout.TextField(query, MyStyle,
       GUILayout.Height(MyStyle.fixedHeight));

Removing the GUILayout.Height and fixedHeight don't seem to have an effect outside of layout (the cursor and highlight is still offset the same way).

Its not, just a regular TextField. Though I might try an InputField if I can't fix the regular TextField. Good suggestion.

What is it for ?

Because InputTextField does't support having the text alignment on top or on bottom. Need to be center...

Ah, I just saw that InputField is New-GUI. This is for an editor extension so I can't use InputField.

Its for a popup window in the editor with a large query box: alt text

This turned out to be a font scaling issue. The solution is to create a font in the size needed since even dynamic fonts are not handled properly for text fields.
