The beauty of a User Interface (UI) is its ability to turn text, panels, and images into a cohesive, functional whole. Masks are an essential component in a UI developer’s tool kit, and are relatively simple to set up and use in Unity.

This tutorial covers User Interface (UI) Components available in Unity, including Canvas, Button, Image, Text, Slider, and more.

In this tutorial you will learn how to setup a new scene for the minigame with some UI.

Unity’s UI Toolkit provides a solution to easily and seamlessly create responsive UI through the use of modern web development workflows. In this course, you’ll learn how to create UI elements, attach global styles to your elements, and write logic to interact with your UI. By the end of this course, you will be able to: Understand the core concepts and vocabulary of Unity’s UI Toolkit. Implement a basic UI using UI Builder, UXML, and USS. Extend existing projects with additional functionality, such as themes, data binding, and animations using USS. Interpret and write basic interactions with Unity’s UI Toolkit elements using C# logic.

A user interface (UI) is what allows a user to interact – or interface – with an application. A UI often includes images, text, buttons, toggles, sliders, or dropdowns. In this mission, you will design your own title screen and functional settings menu. By the time you complete this learning experience, you will be able to: Decide on a user interface approach for a project. Create and configure visual UI components in a manner that will respond appropriately to different screen sizes and resolutions. Create and configure interactive UI components such as buttons, toggles, and sliders, in order to implement simple UI functionality. About this learning experience This project is a standalone learning experience which uses content developed for the Creative Core pathway. You’ll find everything you need to get started with UI in Unity, but you may also notice references to the guided learning journey for that pathway. If you decide that you’d like to complete the whole Creative Core pathway, you can start at any time. You’ll receive credit for any tutorials that you have already completed when you do.

A user interface (UI) is what allows a user to interact – or interface – with an application. A UI often includes images, text, buttons, toggles, sliders, or dropdowns. Unity provides three UI systems that you can use to create user interfaces for both the Unity Editor and applications made in the Unity Editor! In this session, you will learn how to design your own UI and functional settings menu.

In this example, you’re going to create a simple toolbar window with buttons to instantiate primitive objects in the Scene.

Unity’s UI Toolkit comes with a lot of advantages compared to the traditional Unity UI (uGUI) system. It’s a more modern, flexible, and performance-oriented alternative that will scale much better for most projects. It’s also the futureproof UI system for Unity 6.0 and beyond. However, as it draws inspiration from web-inspired technologies, the learning curve for UI Toolkit can feel a little steep if you are not familiar with markup languages like HTML/XML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Admittedly, a lot of things have also changed over the years as new functionality has been added to UI Toolkit. But with Unity 6 now available, now is a great time to consider it for your next project. Over the last couple of years Unity has released several comprehensive tutorial projects like QuizU and the Dragon Crashers UI toolkit sample . We also released a 130+ page free ebook that can help get you started with UI Toolkit. However, if you’re completely new to UI Toolkit and just looking for a simple introduction, this article is a good place to start.

In this tutorial, you will learn: Teach how to put Anchor buttons to sides and adjust their width and height Teach how to put Anchor UI Text to the top-center of the Canvas and adjust the screen width How to use the anchor presets to lock UI elements to corners and sides of the UI menus Teach how to use the Canvas Scaler to automatically adjust the menu size based on different screen sizes Teach how to add the Canvas Scaler to Canvas Teach how to use the Canvas Scaler’s settings to scale the Canvas appropriately with different screen sizes

In this tutorial, you’ll create a script to adjust the health display bar based on the player character’s health. By the end of the tutorial, you’ll be able to do the following: Resize a UI element based on a variable. Make your script accessible without a reference using a static class member.
