Unigine::Gui Class

Header: #include <UnigineGui.h>

Creates a GUI. Different types of GUI widgets can be either added to one of the following:

  • To the system GUI (Unigine user interface) that is rendered on top of application window.
  • To the GUI object positioned in the world. In this case, any postprocessing filter can be applied.
Default values returned by the following methods can be overridden via RC files defining a custom GUI.
