Hello, guys. Now I’m facing with another issue. I made texture for the player’s health. I used `OnGUI ()` to make it. When the health drops, I reduce the width of the GUI. However, when it is reduces, it also affects the height. So how can I solve that? Thank you!

Here is my code :

```
var healthBar : Texture2D;

var health : int = 100;

function OnGUI ( ) {

var screenPos : Vector3 = camera.main.WorldToScreenPoint (transform.position);

GUI.Label (Rect (screenPos.x, Screen.height - screenPos.y, health / 2, 100), healthBar);

}

```

Textures getting stretched/squashed is a setting you have to set up in the GUIStyle. Try defining a custom [GUIStyle](http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/GUIStyle.html) for your health-bars, and then tick ‘stretchHeight’ to true. By default it doesn’t like messing with your texture sizes, but for something like a health bar, it’s obviously desired behaviour.
