Add actor name to bubble

Post by pmand »

I would like to add the actor's name to the top center of each bubble.
How can I do this?

Hi,

That would be the subtitle panel's Portrait Name. Just add a Text or TextMeshProGUI component to the bubble, and assign it to the subtitle panel's Portrait Name field. If you're using TextMesh Pro and haven't enabled the Dialogue System's support for it yet, see here.

If you're unsure how to position the Portrait Name at the top center, I recommend the Working With UI In Unity tutorial.
