Question by shay4545 · Sep 19, 2014 at 10:30 PM · c#androidguiscreenfontsize

GUI font size help

Is there a way to make the font size consistent throughout devices? Like with other GUI elements, you can do screen.width and screen.height stuff, so I was wondering if you could make the font size of a GUI Button to be like a fraction of the button size instead of checking and changing, because the last time I made an app, the Font was wayyyy to small when I tested for android.

Of course, you are able to do it. The truth, for scaling of GUI elements is better to use GUI.matrix instead of Screen.width and Screen.height. But for your case create new GUIStyle in your Assets folder (the right click -> Create GUIStyle). Set in it necessary parameters, and in a script give the reference to it and use in OnGUI (). The example is lower(write on CSharp):

  public GUIStyle myStyle = null; //reference on your style

  void Start() {
   //For example, font size for screen width = 1920 is equal 30, then calculate new font size
   myStyle.fontSize = (int)(30.0f * (float)(Screen.width) / 1920.0f);
  }

  void OnGUI() {
   //Use your style for text
   GUI.Label(new Rect(25, 25, 200, 100), "This is label", myStyle);
   //And etc
  }

But don't forget change normal color text into style: yourStyle->normal->TextColor. Use white. I hope that it will help you.
