Hi,

 scaling GUI : what gui system are you using and what kind of scaling you are after. do you need layout modifications or a true scaling completly tight to the screensize? It would be good if you can provide more precision on that so that we can answer something useful.

bye,

 Jean

Sure! Basically just using the built in OnGUI system provided by Playmaker and Unity.

Might be the case that I still don't have a clue how this all works (regarding the UI) but I did the following:

I setup an FSM to display a variety of buttons and labels to populate the main menu of my game. The hole setup was done in full hd resolution, however if I now switch the resolution to something lower than full hd the whole UI (Buttons, Labels and Sliders) kind of loose their screen positions and in rare cases are off screen.

I have to admit that I am a littlebit alone in the dark when it comes to GUI scripting and setup.

bye,
Sub
