Same button position in all Android devices
Hello everyone, my problem is that I can't configure out how to adjust a button in the same position in all android devices. I use Screen.width and Screen.height with variables like, Screen.height / 2 - x etc... Is there any way to do it?
Thanks in advance. Any help is appreciated :)
Hello well what i use is the scale and height with respect to width and height of the screen. For Example: GUI.Button(new Rect(Screen.width/2,Screen.height/2, Screen.width/8, Screen.height/8),"Hello");
If you want to use dp instead of px you could use that script "DisplayMetricsUtil" http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/337460/scaling-gui-buttons-to-be-the-right-size-no-mobile.html
The script provide some extension methods for converting dp to px and px to dp:
if(GUI.Button(new Rect(Screen.width - 110f.DpToPixel(), Screen.height - 30f.DpToPixel(), 100f.DpToPixel(), 20f.DpToPixel()),"MyButton"))
No need to convert Screen.width because it's the full width of the device.
You seem to have given the answer yourself.. and ahaykal gave an example of what you said...
Just another exemple taking into account the button's size: If you'd want a button to always be at 5 pixels from the lower right corner and your button was 100x20, you'd write (in c#):
if(GUI.Button(new Rect(Screen.width - 5f - 100f, Screen.height - 5f - 20f, 100f, 20f),"MyButton"))
{
}
You could also add a resizing factor (horizontal screen width for exemple) to resize your buttons. If your base resolution would be 1024x768 for exemple you'd write
float factor = Screen.width/1024;
if(GUI.Button(new Rect(Screen.width - factor *5f - factor *100f, Screen.height - factor *5f - factor *20f, factor *100f, factor *20f),"MyButton"))
{
}
The button would always be in the lower right corner and it's size and distance to the border would be proportially changed to the horizontal resolution of your screen.
On a 2048x1536 (ipad retina) or 2048x768 (doesn't exist) screen, your button would be twice as big and twice as far from the border (10px)
