Question by SeyedMahdi · Jul 10, 2014 at 07:40 PM · buttonobjectchange color

Change color of object

Hi

I am new to unity. I am trying to change the color of my object, and I want to assign it to a button, so when I click the button, color changes to the specific RGB that I enter manually. I have searched but didn't get what I need. can anyone help ?

ok. then you can change the color (by defining rgba values) of the object as follows:

 Color myColor = new Color(r,g,b,a);
 Transform parentObject = this.transform.parent;
 
 if(myButtonClicked == true){
    
     parentObject.renderer.material.color = myColor;
 
 }

Oh, btw, don't use plane. It has 100 tris. Not necessary for a measly button. Use Quads. Only 2 tries. :)

sorry for asking so many questions, my object is made of separate parts, how to control the color of each part ?

You can control the colour with same logic for every separate item that you wish to change the colour for. As for the mybuttonclicked, it is just some Boolean you have to get by either implementing touch on your button or using native Unity GUI.
