GUI.Label

Parameters

Description

Make a text or texture label on screen.

Labels have no user interaction, do not catch mouse clicks and are always rendered in normal style. If you want to make a control that responds visually to user input, use a Box control.

Example: Draw the classic Hello World! string:

Text label on the Game View.

	function OnGUI () {
		GUI.Label (Rect (10, 10, 100, 20), "Hello World!");
	}

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
    void OnGUI() {
        GUI.Label(new Rect(10, 10, 100, 20), "Hello World!");
    }
}

import UnityEngine
import System.Collections

public class ExampleClass(MonoBehaviour):

	def OnGUI() as void:
		GUI.Label(Rect(10, 10, 100, 20), 'Hello World!')

Example: Draw a texture on-screen. Labels are also used to display textures, instead of a string, simply pass in a texture:

Texture Label.

	var textureToDisplay : Texture2D;
	
	function OnGUI () {
		GUI.Label (Rect (10, 40, textureToDisplay.width, textureToDisplay.height),
			textureToDisplay);
	}

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
    public Texture2D textureToDisplay;
    void OnGUI() {
        GUI.Label(new Rect(10, 40, textureToDisplay.width, textureToDisplay.height), textureToDisplay);
    }
}

import UnityEngine
import System.Collections

public class ExampleClass(MonoBehaviour):

	public textureToDisplay as Texture2D

	def OnGUI() as void:
		GUI.Label(Rect(10, 40, textureToDisplay.width, textureToDisplay.height), textureToDisplay)
