A fancy speech bubble based on Unity UI Text
Just download the Unity package FancySpeechBubble.unitypackage. I also have a blog post about this.
Everything happens in the script FancySpeechBubble.cs. The script needs to be attached to a GameObject with UI.Text and UI.ContentSizeFitter. There are a few configurable parameters for the script:
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| characterStartSize | int | starting font size of character scale-up animation (default is 1) |
| characterAnimateSpeed | float | charater scale-up animation speed (font size change / second) (default is 1000f) |
| rawText | string | readonly: raw text of the speech bubble |
| processedText | string | readonly: processed text with '\n' indicating line breaks |
| bubbleBackground | Image | optional: speech bubble background |
| backgroundMinimumHeight | float | optional: speech bubble background minimm height |
| backgroundVerticalMargin | float | optional: speech bubble background top and bottom margin combined |
To see it in action, try run the Example scene.
