UXML element FloatField

A FloatField allows users to input a numerical float value into an application. It accepts and displays text input. You can set placeholder text to provide hints or instructions to the user on what to enter. You can also add validation functions to ensure that the entered data meets certain requirements.

To align a FloatField with other fields in an Inspector window, simply apply the .unity-base-field__aligned USS class to it. For more information, refer to BaseField.

Create a FloatField

You can create a FloatField with UI Builder, UXML, and C#. The following C# example creates a FloatField with a value change callback:

FloatField myElement = new FloatField("Label text");

// Align the float field with the other fields.
myElement.AddToClassList("unity-base-field__aligned");
myElement.value = 0.5f;

// To delay the value change callback until the user has finished editing the value, set the isDelayed property to true.
myElement.isDelayed = true;
myElement.RegisterValueChangedCallback(evt => Debug.Log("New value: " + evt.newValue));

Set a placeholder text

You can set a placeholder text for the element. You can also hide the placeholder text on focus.

Note: The placeholder text won’t display if you set a value for the element. To unset a value in UI Builder, right-click the Value field in the element’s Inspector tab and select Unset.

In C#, use the placeholder and the hidePlaceholderOnFocus properties through textEdition:

myElement.textEdition.placeholder = "Enter your value here";
myElement.textEdition.hidePlaceholderOnFocus = true;

To style the placeholder text, use the .unity-base-text-field__input--placeholder USS selector.

Customize the input text selection

Input text is selectable by default. You can customize the selection behaviors such as selectAllOnMouseUP and selectAllOnFocus.

In C#, set them through textSelection:

myElement.textSelection.selectAllOnMouseUp = false;
myElement.textSelection.selectAllOnFocus = false;

示例

The following UXML example creates a FloatField with a placeholder:

[!code-xml[(External/Resources/editor_resources/Assets/Editor Default Resources/UIPackageResources/Snippets/UXML/FloatFieldSnippet.uxml)]

The following C# example illustrates some of the customizable functionalities of the FloatField:

[!code-cs[(Modules/UIElementsSamplesEditor/Snippets/FloatFieldSnippet.cs#sample)]

To try this example live in Unity, go to Window > UI Toolkit > Samples.

C# base class and namespace

C# class: FloatField
Namespace: UnityEngine.UIElements
Base class: TextValueField_1

Inherited UXML attributes

This element inherits the following attributes from its base class:

名称 类型 描述
binding-path string Path of the target property to be bound.
focusable boolean True if the element can be focused.
is-delayed boolean If set to true, the value property isn’t updated until either the user presses Enter or the text field loses focus.
label string The string representing the label that will appear beside the field.
tabindex int An integer used to sort focusables in the focus ring. Must be greater than or equal to zero.
value float The value associated with the field.

This element also inherits the following attributes from VisualElement:

名称 类型 描述
content-container string Child elements are added to it, usually this is the same as the element itself.
name string The name of this VisualElement.

Use this property to write USS selectors that target a specific element. The standard practice is to give an element a unique name.
picking-mode UIElements.PickingMode Determines if this element can be pick during mouseEvents or IPanel.Pick queries.
style string Reference to the style object of this element.

Contains data computed from USS files or inline styles written to this object in C#.
tooltip string Text to display inside an information box after the user hovers the element for a small amount of time. This is only supported in the Editor UI.
usage-hints UIElements.UsageHints A combination of hint values that specify high-level intended usage patterns for the VisualElement. This property can only be set when the VisualElement is not yet part of a Panel. Once part of a Panel, this property becomes effectively read-only, and attempts to change it will throw an exception. The specification of proper UsageHints drives the system to make better decisions on how to process or accelerate certain operations based on the anticipated usage pattern. Note that those hints do not affect behavioral or visual results, but only affect the overall performance of the panel and the elements within. It’s advised to always consider specifying the proper UsageHints, but keep in mind that some UsageHints might be internally ignored under certain conditions (e.g. due to hardware limitations on the target platform).
view-data-key string Used for view data persistence (ie. tree expanded states, scroll position, zoom level).

This is the key used to save/load the view data from the view data store. Not setting this key will disable persistence for this VisualElement.
