Custom markup tags

[davidlim]

Hello, I'm trying to achieve a functionality in which onHover on a specific work a script would run.
I think this could be nicely achieved with a tag like so

Code: Select all

If you[hover=someData]HOVER[/hover] me, something cool might happen 

Is this possible ?

If not how should I approach activating some behavior on word being hovered ?

Hello David,

Use TextMesh Pro. (See Enable TextMesh Pro Support)

Use TextMesh Pro's <link> tag.

This is a good tutorial: Hyperlinks in Unity UI using Text Mesh Pro.
