Description

Begin an automatically laid out scrollview.

These work just like GUILayout.BeginScrollView but feel more application-like and should be used in the editor


Label inside a scroll view.

public class BeginScrollViewExample : EditorWindow { Vector2 scrollPos; string t = "This is a string inside a Scroll view!";

[MenuItem("Examples/Modify internal Quaternion")] static void Init() { BeginScrollViewExample window = (BeginScrollViewExample)EditorWindow.GetWindow(typeof(BeginScrollViewExample), true, "My Empty Window"); window.Show(); }

void OnGUI() { EditorGUILayout.BeginHorizontal(); scrollPos = EditorGUILayout.BeginScrollView(scrollPos, GUILayout.Width(100), GUILayout.Height(100)); GUILayout.Label(t); EditorGUILayout.EndScrollView(); if (GUILayout.Button("Add More Text", GUILayout.Width(100), GUILayout.Height(100))) t += " \nAnd this is more text!"; EditorGUILayout.EndHorizontal(); if (GUILayout.Button("Clear")) t = ""; } }
