Method in Effects

Summary

A coroutine that fades a UnityEngine.CanvasGroup object's opacity from from to to over the course of fadeTime seconds, and then invokes onComplete .

public static IEnumerator FadeAlpha(CanvasGroup canvasGroup, float from, float to, float fadeTime, CoroutineInterruptToken stopToken = null)

Parameters

Method in CoroutineInterruptToken

Summary

public void Complete();

Method in CoroutineInterruptToken

Summary

public void Interrupt()

Property in CoroutineInterruptToken

Summary

public bool CanInterrupt { get };

Method in Effects

Summary

A coroutine that gradually reveals the text in a TMPro.TextMeshProUGUI object over time.

public static IEnumerator Typewriter(TextMeshProUGUI text, float lettersPerSecond, Action onCharacterTyped, CoroutineInterruptToken stopToken = null)

Remarks

This method works by adjusting the value of the text parameter's TextMeshProUGUI.maxVisibleCharacters property. This means that word wrapping will not change half-way through the presentation of a word.

Due to an internal implementation detail of TextMeshProUGUI, this method will always take at least one frame to execute, regardless of the length of the text parameter's text.

Parameters

Method in Effects

Summary

A coroutine that gradually reveals the text in a TMPro.TextMeshProUGUI object over time.

public static IEnumerator PausableTypewriter(TextMeshProUGUI text, float lettersPerSecond, Action onCharacterTyped, Action onPauseStarted, Action onPauseEnded, Stack<(int position, float duration)> pausePositions, CoroutineInterruptToken stopToken = null)

Remarks

Essentially identical to Typewriter(TextMeshProUGUI,float,Action,CoroutineInterruptToken) but supports pausing the animation based on pausePositions values.

Parameters

Class in Effects

Inherits from System.Object

Summary

An object that can be used to signal to a coroutine that it should terminate early.

public class CoroutineInterruptToken

Remarks

While coroutines can be stopped by calling UnityEngine.MonoBehaviour.StopCoroutine(System.Collections.IEnumerator) or UnityEngine.MonoBehaviour.StopAllCoroutines, this has the side effect of also stopping any coroutine that was waiting for the now-stopped coroutine to finish.

Instances of this class may be passed as a parameter to a coroutine that they can periodically poll to see if they should terminate earlier than planned.

To use this class, create an instance of it, and pass it as a parameter to your coroutine. In the coroutine, call Start() to mark that the coroutine is running. During the coroutine's execution, periodically check the WasInterrupted property to determine if the coroutine should exit. If it is true, the coroutine should exit (via the yield break statement.) At the normal exit of your coroutine, call the Complete() method to mark that the coroutine is no longer running. To make a coroutine stop, call the Interrupt() method.

You can also use the CanInterrupt property to determine if the token is in a state in which it can stop (that is, a coroutine that's using it is currently running.)
