Multiple (*) value to position GUI?

Unity Engine
1

Hi

im rewriting my GUI button script to make each button position resolution independent or similiar.
In order to position the buttons in the left part of the screen i divide the the screen.width with a number. To position it on the right side of the middle part of the screen, i do the opposite by decrese the size of the screen width with the size of the GUI button (100) multiplied with two.

private var positionX = (Screen.width) - (dimensionsX *2); 
    private var positionY = (Screen.height / 1.2) - (dimensionsY / 2);

When i deactivate “maximize on play”, and press play and then pause and activate “maximize on play”, and press pause again, i can see the gui button at the right part of the screen. Obviously cause the button cordinates were set according to the smaller screen.
But no mather how mutch i multiply the dimensionX of the GUI button wont change its x position. What am i doing wrong? :shock:

Id have to see a bit more of your code but it seems to me those variables are created at runtime, and are never updated…

the functions update:

function Update () { 

	
	if(Input.touches.Length > 0){
		for(var touch : Touch in Input.touches){ 
			
			touching = Within(touch.position, Rect(positionX, positionY, dimensionsX,dimensionsY));
			if(touching){
				curTouch = touch.fingerId; 
				texture = trycktBild; 
				break;
			}
		}

the OnGUI function:

function OnGUI () {
	GUI.backgroundColor = new Color(0,0,0,0);
	GUI.Button(Rect(positionX, positionY, dimensionsX,dimensionsY),texture); 
	

}

An alternativ is to do like this, but that doesnt work well either. Now the problem is that nomather what value i multiple with dimensionX, and posiiton of the button remains the same.

private var positionX = (Screen.width / 2) + (dimensionsX * 100)

Never mind. I Think i solved it myself. I was specifying the value of dimensionX Y to late.
