BeginHorizontal allignment

Hey! I have this code:

Code (CSharp):

1. EditorGUILayout.BeginHorizontal();
2.                 EditorGUILayout.LabelField("",style,GUILayout.Width(15),GUILayout.Height(15));
3.                 EditorGUILayout.BeginHorizontal(helpbox);
4.                 EditorGUILayout.LabelField(error,style,GUILayout.Width(15),GUILayout.Height(15));
5.                 EditorGUILayout.LabelField("","Make sure the tool handle is placed at the active object's pivot point.");
6.                 EditorGUILayout.EndHorizontal();
7.                 EditorGUILayout.EndHorizontal();

that gives me this:



But as you can see, the red icon is not centered in the box, how would I change this?

the variable 'error' is defined like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. GUIContent error = new GUIContent();
2.         error = EditorGUIUtility.IconContent("CollabConflict");

style is defined like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. GUIStyle style = new GUIStyle();

 

Maybe this helps you:

Yes, I tried that already but so far, no success :/

 

Try adding the following for your guistyle:
style.alignment = TextAnchor.MiddleLeft;

 

Does nothing :/

 

Can you show "style" declaration please ?

 

Code (CSharp):

1. GUIStyle style = new GUIStyle();

You don't need any of that BeginHorizontal stuff. Just display a label with a GUIContent that has an image. Unless I'm misunderstanding something...

Code (CSharp):

1. class MyEditor : Editor {
2.  
3.     public override void OnInspectorGUI() {
4.  
5.         GUILayout.Label(Styles.error, Styles.helpbox);
6.     }
7.  
8.     static class Styles {
9.  
10.         internal static GUIContent error;
11.         internal static GUIStyle helpbox;
12.  
13.         static Styles() {
14.  
15.             error = EditorGUIUtility.IconContent("CollabConflict");
16.             error.text = " Make sure the tool handle is placed at the active object's pivot point.";
17.  
18.             helpbox = new GUIStyle(EditorStyles.helpBox);
19.             helpbox.alignment = TextAnchor.MiddleLeft;
20.         }
21.     }
22. }

Unity also has an inbuilt Helpbox if that's what you're looking for:

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/EditorGUILayout.HelpBox.html

 

Works perfectly! Thanks CDF for helping me out again

I know of the existence of the Helpbox but I wanted to override the error sign. I like the "CollabConflict" better.

 

I encountered an issue, with this code:

Code (CSharp):

1. static class Styles {
2.  
3.         internal static GUIContent PivotError;
4.             internal static GUIContent DoorError;
5.             internal static GUIContent AngleError;
6.             internal static GUIContent SpeedError;
7.         internal static GUIStyle helpbox;
8.  
9.         static Styles()
10.                 {
11.             PivotError = EditorGUIUtility.IconContent("CollabConflict");
12.             PivotError.text = " Make sure the tool handle is placed at the active object's pivot point.";
13.  
14.                         DoorError = EditorGUIUtility.IconContent("CollabConflict");
15.                         DoorError.text = " If your door is not scaled in Unity3D units and the pivot position is not already positioned correctly, the hinge algorithm will not work as expected.";
16.  
17.                         AngleError = EditorGUIUtility.IconContent("CollabConflict");
18.                         AngleError.text = " The difference between FinalAngle and InitialAngle should be less than 360°.";
19.  
20.                         SpeedError = EditorGUIUtility.IconContent("CollabConflict");
21.                         SpeedError.text = " The speed of a rotation block should be higher than zero.";
22.  
23.             helpbox = new GUIStyle(EditorStyles.helpBox);
24.             helpbox.alignment = TextAnchor.MiddleLeft;
25.         }
26.     }

And then when I want to put a label on the screen like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. GUILayout.Label(Styles.AngleError, Styles.helpbox);
2. GUILayout.Label(Styles.SpeedError, Styles.helpbox);

They both show up like this:

 

Ah yeah sorry, IconContent returns a cached GUIContent when possible. I'd make a simple wrapper function for it:

Code (CSharp):

1. static Styles() {
2.          
3.     PivotError = IconContent("CollabConflict", " Make sure the tool handle is placed at the active object's pivot point.");
4.     DoorError = IconContent("CollabConflict", " If your door is not scaled in Unity3D units and the pivot position is not already positioned correctly, the hinge algorithm will not work as expected.");
5.     AngleError = IconContent("CollabConflict", " The difference between FinalAngle and InitialAngle should be less than 360°.");
6.     SpeedError = IconContent("CollabConflict", " The speed of a rotation block should be higher than zero.");
7.  
8.     helpbox = new GUIStyle(EditorStyles.helpBox);
9.     helpbox.alignment = TextAnchor.MiddleLeft;
10. }
11.  
12. static GUIContent IconContent(string icon, string text) {
13.  
14.     GUIContent cached = EditorGUIUtility.IconContent(icon);
15.  
16.     return new GUIContent(text, cached.image);
17. }
