Unity UI Tutorial | An introduction

Great games' unsung heroes are great user interfaces. I've grown to love Unity's UI creation system but it admittedly took a little bit to get the hang of. Since making UI isn't at the core of most games' gameplay mechanics, it can be easy to neglect, especially if you don't really know where to begin. In this video, we'll walk through the basic concepts of creating UI in Unity.

Does the background music remind anyone else of the song "maneater" lol

I'm only 6 minutes into the video and I already know the next 22 are going to be pure gold as well! Very informative for a Unity newbie! Great pace and you're going over all the little things that are probably trivial for advanced users. Thank you!

This is such a great tutorial. I had basic understanding of most of the concepts that were covered, but this really helped me to get a better understanding of them, and to clean up some of my own UIs!

Excellent explanation of how anchor points work and the recalculation of Rect Transform when you adjust the anchor points. I finally have a decent understanding of how to position elements on the canvas. Well done and thank you!

Awesome job on this tutorial, your voice, the music, and the information made it easy to sit through

I like how i always just find a video on what i want to learn and i get half way through and remember i forgot to watch it

Unity's UIUX was awkward, so I couldn't handle the tool properly, but seeing your tutorial allowed me to place it in the scene. Thank you for your help. I'm used to blueprint coding, so it's still difficult to implement interactions.

[elizzzzzabitch]

very clear and easy to follow, thank you

If you change the canvas render mode to camera (instead of overlay) and drag the scenes main camera into it, unity will show the UI in the same box as all the main objects (it will be in the same section as the cube instead of zoomed all the way out).

thank you so much! this is a wonderful tutorial and you explain so well :))

I am extremely new to Unity, but your Tutorial helped me out a lot. I was getting frustrated at the Unity Learn site, I just wanted to learn how to code some basic buttons.

[Siam]

Very good tutorial! (I think the best if i think correctly)👍🏻

[ananasikakotik]

what should I do if I can't move the background image into the scene? I'm trying to move an image from a folder Assets to Source image but this action is marked with the unavailable icon

[theyolkstar]

THIS IS WHAT I NEED. 30MINS OF A VIDEO THIS IS THE PEAK OF AIA. THE BEST. THE GREATEST. although we need them funny edit ngl >.>

[esamahmed]

Sir, how to connect this ui with game?

[landonmoss]

so why did u do the panel white then the background is fine after i dont understand'

[coolorphans]

1:07 What if you don't have an open area?

[BSkyWalk]

How come when I adjus the pannel size the Canvas size also gets adjusted? Also the button is hiden behid the canvas no matter where i set it in the hierarchy. I also set my canvas render move to screen space overlay, the pannel is also set to stretch and I have the same hierarchy (this is a brand new project following this video in unity 2019 lts). I can only seem to follow this tutorial when the canvas is set to world space render mode instead.

[Saladon]

My game will have 4 constant UI screens displaying information in each UI at the same time, should I do multiple canvases or one big canvas with multiple panels?

For any one that wants a more accurate edit for the nine sprits set the L, R, T, B to 114
