Inventory UI on side of game screen?

Unity Engine
1

Good day

I would like to have an Inventory and status UI on one side of the screen the whole time. On the Inventory part I will have objects that the user can drag onto the game board. When the user drags the object a game object of that type will be created and placed on the game board.

I looked at the Canvas render modes and it looks like I will need to use either the “Screen space - Camera” or the “World Space” option. What is the best way of doing a UI of this type?

Kind regards.

If you want it on top of the screen in a specific position, then a Screen Space - Overlay is your best option
