    public class SafeArea : MonoBehaviour
    Remarks

    Inset edges, alignment centering, and reference orientation are configurable. Edge and alignment directions are authored in the reference orientation and remapped to the current device orientation at runtime.

    Properties

    Alignment

    Controls which axis to center the rect by equalizing insets on both sides

    Declaration
    public SafeArea.AlignmentMode Alignment { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    SafeArea.AlignmentMode

    Edges

    Controls which edges of the device to inset to respect the safe area

    Declaration
    public SafeArea.SafeAreaMode Edges { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    SafeArea.SafeAreaMode

    ReferenceOrientation

    The reference orientation to determine edges to respect safe area

    Declaration
    public ScreenOrientation ReferenceOrientation { get; set; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    ScreenOrientation

    RespectSafeAreaScreenBottom

    Whether this UI component respects (inset to) the safe area on the screen's bottom edge for the current device orientation.

    Declaration
    public bool RespectSafeAreaScreenBottom { get; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    bool

    RespectSafeAreaScreenLeft

    Whether this UI component respects (inset to) the safe area on the screen's left edge for the current device orientation.

    Declaration
    public bool RespectSafeAreaScreenLeft { get; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    bool

    RespectSafeAreaScreenRight

    Whether this UI component respects (inset to) the safe area on the screen's right edge for the current device orientation.

    Declaration
    public bool RespectSafeAreaScreenRight { get; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    bool

    RespectSafeAreaScreenTop

    Whether this UI component respects (inset to) the safe area on the screen's top edge for the current device orientation.

    Declaration
    public bool RespectSafeAreaScreenTop { get; }
    Property Value
    Type Description
    bool

    Methods

    GetReferenceOrientationMappedDirection(SafeAreaMode)

    Calculate and return the orientation that any given reference orientation direction is mapped to.

    Declaration
    public SafeArea.SafeAreaMode GetReferenceOrientationMappedDirection(SafeArea.SafeAreaMode referenceOrientationDirection)
    Parameters
    Type Name Description
    SafeArea.SafeAreaMode referenceOrientationDirection

    The direction in reference orientation space to map.

    Returns
    Type Description
    SafeArea.SafeAreaMode

    The direction in screen space for the current device orientation.
