UXML element RepeatButton

A RepeatButton performs a repetitive action when users press and hold it. You define the action, a delay, and an interval. When users press the RepeatButton, the initial delay must be met before the first action starts, and then it repeats at the specified interval.

Note: A RepeatButton doesn’t have the same styling as a regular Button. You can apply the .unity-button USS class to it to make it look like a regular Button.

Create a RepeatButton

Although you can create a RepeatButton with UXML, you must create the action logic in C#. The following C# example creates a RepeatButton that logs a console message when pressed and held:

// The logging delays 100ms before starting and repeats every 50ms.
var repeatButton = new RepeatButton(() => { Debug.Log("Button being pressed"); }, 100, 50);
repeatButton.text = "Press and hold me";

// Apply the ".unity-button" USS class to make the RepeatButton look like a regular Button.
repeatButton.AddToClassList("unity-button");
