Toggle gameobject on/off with button
Hi, I've been trying to toggle a gameobject on and off with a button but keep getting errors like..
"No appropriate version of 'UnityEngine.GUI.Button' for the argument list '(UnityEngine.Rect, boolean, String)' was found".
Here is my current code, can anyone help?
var icon : Texture2D;
var toggleBool = true;
var target : GameObject;
function OnGUI () {
GUI.Box (Rect (0,0,100,90), "Top-left");
toggleBool = GUI.Button (Rect (10,30,90,20), toggleBool, "turn on/off");
target.SetActive(toggleBool);
}

That's not how GUI.Button works - no version takes a bool argument. Check out the docs.
You need to do something like
if(GUI.Button(Rect (10,30,90,20), "turn on/off"))
toggleBool = !toggleBool
target.SetActive(toggleBool);
toggleBool = !toggleBool then we need a ; to close it down :)
or:
gameObject.SetActive(!gameObject.activeInHierarchy);
A method like this will work:
public GameObject GameObjectToHide;
void Start()
{
GameObjectToHide = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("GameObjectToHide");
}
public void HideGameObject()
{
if
(GameObjectToHide.activeInHierarchy)
{
GameObjectToHide.SetActive(false);
}
else
{
GameObjectToHide.SetActive(true);
}
}
