- Import the
Kenney Default Glyphs(Pixel Art) orXelu Default Glyphssample from this package in the Package Manager.- This will import CC0 licensed input sprites by Kenney or Xelu alongside
GlyphMapandGlyphCollectionassets that associate inputs to glyphs. - By default this should import to your project at
Assets/Samples/Rewired Input Glyphs/{version}/{sample name} - Feel free to move these files to any location you'd prefer
- If you use these glyphs in your application you are encouraged to support their creator when possible
- This will import CC0 licensed input sprites by Kenney or Xelu alongside
- Find the Rewired Input Manager prefab in your project and add the
Rewired Glyph Managercomponent to it.- This component and others in the package can be found in the Add Component menu under
Rewired Glyphs
- This component and others in the package can be found in the Add Component menu under
- Add the
Glyph Collectionimported from step 3 to theRewired Glyph Manager - Press the
Generate TMP Sprite Sheetbutton on theRewired Glyph Manager- This generates TextMeshPro sprite sheets that allow for inline input glyph icons with your text.
- You are ready to go! Check out the usage section below to start displaying the icons in your project!
There are several ways to show input glyphs in your project such as:
- Built-in components
- Custom components
- Polling the
InputGlyphsAPI directly
Let's cover some of these methods and how to use them in your project.
GlyphRichTextFormatter- Attach this component to a Game Object with aTMP_Textand it will format text such as<glyph "Jump">into an inline sprite that represents that action.<glyph "Jump">will show the jump input sprite for player at index 0<glyph "Move Horizontal" 1 Negative>will show the move left input sprite for player at index 1<glyph 13 0>will show the action #13 input sprite for player at index 0<glyph "Move Horizontal" Full>will show the move left or right input sprite for player at index 0
GlyphImageOutput- Show an input icon for an action, even if there is no sprite.GlyphTextOutput- Show an input description for an action.GlyphHybridOutput- Show an input icon for an action or fallback to text if there is no sprite available.GlyphLabeledImageOutput- Show an input icon with an associated but independentTMP_Textand set their layout.
Custom components can be created by inheriting from GlyphDisplay.
This class provides the void SetGlyph(Glyph glyph, AxisRange axisRange) method which is automatically invoked when a glyph may have changed such as a input device changes or preferences modifications.
Most of the built-in components inherit from GlyphDisplay so consider referencing them for examples.
If you wanted tighter control over your implementation of presenting glyphs you can also use the InputGlyphs class to get glyph information yourself.
Some important members to consider are the following:
event Action RebuildGlyphs- A static event which is invoked whenever the Glyph output of this class may have changed.Glyph GetCurrentGlyph(int actionID, Pole pole, out AxisRange axisRange, int playerIndex = 0)- Get theGlyphfor particular player's action.void SetGlyphPreferences(HardwarePreference hardwarePreference, SymbolPreference symbolPreference)- Set the preferred symbols you want to present to the user.
