hello.
I’m currently trying to display data that i have mapped into unity via a CSV from a structural engineering modeling software.
What i would like to have working is a click on and object with a mousedown, and have the data show up in a menu is this possible? ,does anyone know of a way that would help me achieve this goal ?
I have tried using a Gui label, but cant get it to work.
The data is placed into the “Meta Data” script from the “Scheduleparser” script.
Any advice or help on this matter would be much appreciated.
going to need more about the data structure you’re using to store the data in unity… and how you want this to be displayed.
At a very high level (since we don’t have the detail yet) it’s usually a case of iterating over the data structure and instantiating UI elements to display the data… with a little formatting on the parent UI panel or whatever to get it to order/display as you need.
The basic tutorials and more one of the more advanced live training sessions on this kind of subject are here:
The data is then stored to “Data” Script Keys “that you can see in the PNG i attached” , Values. The Key being the headers eg ID, cost,Fire ,Rating,Description
and the values being the 294814, 500, 1 hour, burke. this is stored to each game object, i would want a menu GUI that shows the correct data when that Game object is clicked.
