Unity 3D Game Development by Example

Time for action - center the game grid horizontally

By dropping two more instances of FlexibleSpace into your BuildGrid() function, you can horizontally center the grid on the screen.

1. Add a GUILayout.FlexibleSpace(); function call between the GUILayout.BeginHorizontal() and GUILayout.EndHorizontal() calls:

   function BuildGrid()
   {
   GUILayout.BeginVertical();
   GUILayout.FlexibleSpace();
   for(i=0; i<rows; i++)
   {
   GUILayout.BeginHorizontal();
   GUILayout.FlexibleSpace();
   for(j=0; j<cols; j++)
   {
   // Again, the code here has been removed for the sake of brevity
   }
   GUILayout.FlexibleSpace();
   GUILayout.EndHorizontal();
   }
   GUILayout.FlexibleSpace();
   GUILayout.EndVertical();
   }
   

2. Save the script and test your game. Hooray! The game grid is now centered on the screen, ...
