4.6 UI : How to automatically set the size of a pannel from the size of inner text or other elements
Think like a modal window opens and depending on it's amount of text or buttons inside it resizes accordingly.
Any tutorial is appreciated too.
Thanks :D
Lets take a simple example, add a panel to the canvas and add a Horizontal Layout Group. Untick the Child Force Expand for both width and height. Also add a Content Size Fitter and set Horizontal to preferred. Set padding left and right to 5 so the text has a bit of space around it (just personal preference though).
Add a Text UI element as a child of that panel and again add the Content Size Fitter and set Horizontal to Preferred.
Now when you add or remove text the whole panel will expand. Sure I came across someone working through a tutorial for a modal window that uses this for more complex boxes as well so maybe search for that video.
No problem, found that tutorial on modal windows just go to the Learn section above and look in live training for UI Tools: $$anonymous$$aking a generic modal window
