Spacing out GUI Buttons

Hi everyone,

Very new to unity and Scripting. I found this script online for creating buttons to rotate the camera around an object in my scene. The buttons work fine, but I want to space them out across the screen, rather than have them right next to each other, i.e. the UP button at the top, the LEFT button on the left hand side of the screen, etc. It's very simple, I know, but can't figure it out. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Here is the script:

//WASDtoorbit, leftCtrl/Alttozoom
usingUnityEngine;
usingSystem.Collections;

[AddComponentMenu("Camera-Control/Keyboard Orbit")]

publicclassGuikeys : MonoBehaviour {
publicTransformtarget;
publicfloatdistance = 20.0f;
publicfloatzoomSpd = 2.0f;

publicfloatxSpeed = 240.0f;
publicfloatySpeed = 123.0f;

publicintyMinLimit = -723;
publicintyMaxLimit = 877;

privatefloatx = 0.0f;
privatefloaty = 0.0f;

privatefloatGUIHorizontal = 0;
privatefloatGUIVertical = 0;

publicvoidStart () {
Vector3angles = transform.eulerAngles;
x = angles.y;
y = angles.x;

//Maketherigidbodynotchangerotation
if (rigidbody)
rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
}



voidOnGUI()
{
if(Event.current.type == EventType.Repaint)
{
GUIHorizontal = 0;
GUIVertical = 0;
}
GUILayout.BeginArea (newRect (10, 10, 100, 100));
GUILayout.BeginVertical();
if(GUILayout.RepeatButton("UP"))
{
GUIVertical = 1;
}
GUILayout.BeginHorizontal();
if(GUILayout.RepeatButton("LEFT"))
{
GUIHorizontal = -1;
}
if(GUILayout.RepeatButton("RIGHT"))
{
GUIHorizontal = 1;
}
GUILayout.EndHorizontal();
if(GUILayout.RepeatButton("DOWN"))
{
GUIVertical = -1;
}
GUILayout.EndVertical();
GUILayout.EndArea ();
}


publicvoidLateUpdate () {
if (target) {
x -= GUIHorizontal * xSpeed * 0.02f;
y += GUIVertical * ySpeed * 0.02f;

y = ClampAngle(y, yMinLimit, yMaxLimit);

distance -= Input.GetAxis("Fire1") *zoomSpd* 0.02f;
distance += Input.GetAxis("Fire2") *zoomSpd* 0.02f;

Quaternionrotation = Quaternion.Euler(y, x, 0.0f);
Vector3position = rotation * newVector3(0.0f, 0.0f, -distance) + target.position;

transform.rotation = rotation;
transform.position = position;
}
}

publicstaticfloatClampAngle (floatangle, floatmin, floatmax) {
if (angle < -360.0f)
angle += 360.0f;
if (angle > 360.0f)
angle -= 360.0f;
returnMathf.Clamp (angle, min, max);


}
}

 

Instead of GUILayout.Button, use GUI.Button, and specify positioning
http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/GUI.Button.html

Alternatively, use the new UI buttons
http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/topics/user-interface-ui

 

Totally easier with the new UI. There are some tutorials in my YouTube channel that might help. Link is in my signature.

In particular check out the two on the drop down menu.
