Freeze OnGUI()

Questions & Answers
1

Hi experts.
I use JS and IMGUI to create a huge list of objects. Each object presents by four labels, one button and one box. I have array of these objects. When array populated or element of array is changed, I calculate new values for labels’ strings ONE time. But OnGUI() function works all time.
Is there a way to refresh the screen only when my array is changed?
Could someone help me? Thanks.

Create a boolean variable something like this

var guiIsDirty : bool = true; // set this to tue initially so first time the GUI is drawn

Now anytime you modify a GUI object set guiIsDirty to true.

Next inside OnGui do this

function OnGUI ()
{
    if (guiIsDirty == true)
    {
        // move the bulk of OnGui code here
    }
    guiIsDirty = false;
}
