Question by The_Unity_Game_Developer · Jan 01, 2015 at 08:28 PM · textphotonuserusername

How can I 'disable' editing with a TextArea?

Hello! This is a Photon Unity Networking question.

I have a thing where I use Photon.player.name to let users type in a username. This is just done with a TextArea and stuff.

I then save the string inside the TextArea using player prefs.

My question is this. How can I make it so that when a user types in there username, they will NOT be able to edit it ever again. They would have to redowoad the game.

Thanks in advance!

Change the textarea to a label when the username is saved in the playerprefs and then assign the style to be the style of the textarea. Also, assign the saved playerprefs username to the text of the label.

  GUI.Label(Rect(x,y,width,height),VariableName,"TextField");

Ok thanks! Could you show me the basics of the code please? I understand the concept but I can't think of the code.

First you need to disable the textfield after you've saved the data to playerprefs. Then you need to make the label:

 x, y, width, height = 100;
 username = PlayerPrefs.GetString("Username");
 GUI.Label(Rect(x,y,width,height),username,"TextField");
