Single-line GUI.TextField with custom GUIStyle
I meet some troubles when I try to make input field with custom style on iOS. I need a keyboard without any additional fields, only buttons. When I make
TouchScreenKeyboard.hideInput = true;
it works perfectly, but when I try to use my GUIStyle for customize font and background of input field, it becomes a multiline, and hideInput becomes useless.
There are example of my code:
GUIStyle myCustomStyle = new GUIStyle();
myCustomStyle.font = Resources.Load("myfont") as Font;
myCustomStyle.normal.textColor = Color.blue;
GUI.TextField(new Rect(0,0,200,50), "hello world!", myCustomStyle);
As a result, I get a multi-line input field (but if I call GUI.TextField without specified GUIStyle, it is single-line), and hideInput does not have any effect with this field.
How can I make single-line GUI.TextField with custom GUIStyle?
Check font size, is it same as default font, if not make it same. Also, you can set your GUIStyle wordWrap to false and clipping set to clip like
myCustomStyle.wordWrap = false;
myCustomStyle.clipping = TextClipping.clip;
Unfortunately, it didnt works. When I pass any style to TextField, it becomes multi-line. Even if I do
GUIStyle myStyle = new GUIStyle(GUI.skin.textField);
someString = GUI.TextField(someRect, someString, myStyle);
it results with multi-line textfield, but
someString = GUI.TextField(someRect, someString);
give me single-line textfield.
Can you check Debug.Log(myCustomStyle.imagePosition );
if it is not "TextOnly", then assign myCustomStyle.imagePosition = TextOnly;
I check imagePosition and it is TextOnly. But when I digging around, I found out what I was stupid. Problem appears not when I specify style, but when i specify max length and style. I.e. code like
someString = GUI.TextField(someRect, someString, 40);
or
someString = GUI.TextField(someRect, someString, myStyle);
works perfectly, like simple
someString = GUI.TextField(someRect, someString);
but I get multi-line text field when I make
someString = GUI.TextField(someRect, someString, 40, myStyle);
Sorry for misleading you in my previous posts.
Just curious: am I the only one getting a single-line TextArea?

Found this old topic while searching for something else, in case someone would be interested in this though... maybe it would be worth trying GUI.skin.textField
GUIStyle myStyle = new GUIStyle(GUI.skin.textField);
someString = GUI.TextField(someRect, someString, 40, myStyle);
