Hi!
I'm a new-ish Unity developer, mostly working with Playmaker and GUI assets. Using the Typewriting Effect with the Scrolling Dialogue UI as a starting point, I'm wondering how I might go about creating a flashing cursor icon that appends itself to the end of the existing characters, like the way it would look if you were typing in a Command Line Interface? Going for a terminal-like design for some of the conversation elements, and I'd love to include that effect.
Thanks!!!
Flashing Cursor Animation?
Re: Flashing Cursor Animation?
Hi,
Adding a cursor will require a bit of scripting. You can read through one approach to show a blinking cursor in this thread. We can revisit that approach if you want to show the flashing cursor when the typewriter is done.
If you want to show the flashing cursor while the typewriter is typing characters, that'll require a slightly different approach. If so, let me know and we can look into it together.
