Description

Make a horizontal scrollbar. Scrollbars are what you use to scroll through a document. Most likely, you want to use scrollViews instead.

	var hSbarValue : float;
	
	function OnGUI () {
		hSbarValue = GUI.HorizontalScrollbar (Rect (25, 25, 100, 30), hSbarValue, 1.0, 0.0, 10.0);
	}
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour { public float hSbarValue; void OnGUI() { hSbarValue = GUI.HorizontalScrollbar(new Rect(25, 25, 100, 30), hSbarValue, 1.0F, 0.0F, 10.0F); } }

Finding extra elements:

The styles of the buttons at the end of the scrollbar are searched for in the current skin by adding "leftbutton" and "rightbutton" to the style name. The name of the scrollbar thumb (the thing you drag) is found by appending "thumb" to the style name.

	var scrollPos : float = 0.5;
	// This will use the following style names to determine the size / placement of the buttons
	// MyScrollbarleftbutton    - Name of style used for the left button.
	// MyScrollbarrightbutton - Name of style used for the right button.
	// MyScrollbarthumb         - Name of style used for the draggable thumb.
	function OnGUI() {
		scrollPos = GUI.HorizontalScrollbar(Rect(0,0,100,20), scrollPos, 1, 0, 100, "Scroll");
	}
