Question by MSachs · Sep 06, 2018 at 09:22 AM · scripting problemtextclickmouseover

Make text appear and stay when clicking.

Hi,

I have a script which makes a custom text appear when hovering over an object using OnMouseOver and it disappears when I move the mouse away. Which is what I want.

But I also would like the text to stay visible if I click on the object. How would I do that?

This is my code for now to just show the text while the mouse is over the object..

 {
     public string myString;
     public Text myText;
     public float fadeTime;
     public bool displayInfo;
     bool mouseOver;
     Color grey = new Color (0.65f, 0.65f, 0.65f, 1.0f);
 
 
     void Start () 
     {
         myText.color = Color.clear;
     }

 
     void OnMouseOver()
     { 
         mouseOver = true;
     }
 
     void OnMouseExit()
     {
         mouseOver = false;
     }
         
 
     public void Update()
     {
         FadeText ();
 
         if (mouseOver) {
             displayInfo = true;
         } 
 
         else {
             displayInfo = false;
         }
     }
         
 
     void FadeText ()
     {
         if(displayInfo)
         {
             myText.text = myString;
             myText.color = Color.Lerp (myText.color, grey, fadeTime * Time.deltaTime);
         }
 
         else
         {
             myText.color = Color.Lerp (myText.color, Color.clear, fadeTime * Time.deltaTime);
         }
     }
 }



Thanks in advance :)

  private bool selected;


  void OnMouseDown()
  {
        selected = !selected;
  }

  public void Update()
  {
      displayInfo = mouseOver || selected;
      FadeText ();
  }
