ScrollView displays its content inside a scrollable area. When you add content to a ScrollView, the content is added to the content container (#unity-content-container
) of the ScrollView.
You can create a ScrollView with UI Builder, UXML, or C#. The following C# example creates a ScrollView with both horizontal and vertical scroll capabilities, that contains a title Label, and a number of Toggle elements. It also adds a button that, when clicked, scrolls the list down by one page using the vertical scroller.
// Create a ScrollView with vertical and horizontal scrolling enabled
// and set its width and height.
var scrollView = new ScrollView(ScrollViewMode.VerticalAndHorizontal);
scrollView.style.width = 250;
scrollView.style.height = 400;
// Add a label and 100 toggle elements to the ScrollView.
scrollView.Add(new Label("List of checkboxes:"));
for (int i = 0; i < 100; ++i)
{
var toggle = new UnityEngine.UIElements.Toggle()
{ text = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua." };
scrollView.Add(toggle);
}
// Access the vertical scroller
var verticalScroller = scrollView.verticalScroller;
// Add a button to scroll down one page when clicked
var scrollDownButton = new Button(() =>
{
verticalScroller.ScrollPageDown(50f);
})
{ text = "Scroll Down One Page" };
uiDocument.rootVisualElement.Add(scrollView);
uiDocument.rootVisualElement.Add(scrollDownButton);
Manage the scroll bar visibility
You can specify the scroll mode of the scroll bar movement, whether the horizontal or vertical scroll bars are visible, and control the speed of the scroll bars.
To set the scroll mode of the scroll bar movement in UI Builder, in the InspectorA Unity window that displays information about the currently selected GameObject, asset or project settings, allowing you to inspect and edit the values. More info
See in Glossary window of the ScrollView, select one of the following options for Mode:
To set the visibility of the scroll bar in UI Builder, in the Inspector window of the ScrollView, select one of the following options for Horizontal Scroller Visibility or Vertical Scroller Visibility:
To control the scroll speed, adjust the values of the following properties in UI Builder, UXML, or C# code. The higher the value, the faster the scrolling speed.
horizontal-page-size
controls the speed of horizontal scrolling when using a keyboard or the on-screen scrollbar buttons (arrows and handle). The speed is calculated by multiplying the page size by the specified value. For example, a value of 2
means that each scroll movement covers a distance equal to twice the width of the page.vertical-page-size
controls the speed of vertical scrolling when using a keyboard or the on-screen scrollbar buttons (arrows and handle). The speed is calculated by multiplying the page size by the specified value. For example, a value of 2
means that each scroll movement covers a distance equal to twice the length of the page.mouse-wheel-scroll-size
controls the speed of scrolling when using the mouse wheel. The speed is calculated by dividing the specified value by 18
, which corresponds to the default line height of 18px
. For example, if you set the value to 36
, each scroll movement covers a distance equivalent to two lines of content.Note: You can also override the USS built-in variable âunity-metrics-single_line-height
to control the speed of scrolling when using the mouse wheel. The mouse-wheel-scroll-size
attribute takes precedence over the âunity-metrics-single_line-height
USS variable.
You can wrap visual elementsA node of a visual tree that instantiates or derives from the C# VisualElement
class. You can style the look, define the behaviour, and display it on screen as part of the UI. More info
See in Glossary inside a ScrollView so that the elements display in a row. If the row is full, the elements continue to display on the next line.
To wrap visual elements inside a ScrollView, set the ScrollViewâs content container flex-direction
to row
and flex-wrap
to wrap
.
In USS:
.unity-scroll-view__content-container {
flex-direction: row;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
In C#:
scrollview.contentContainer.style.flexDirection = FlexDirection.Row;
scrollview.contentContainer.style.flexWrap = Wrap.Wrap;
Wrap text of elements inside ScrollView
To wrap the text of an element inside a ScrollView, for example, the text of a Label element, do the following:
white-space: normal;
to the Label element in USS, UXML, or C#.C# class: ScrollView
Namespace: UnityEngine.UIElements
Base class: VisualElement
This element has the following member attributes:
Name Type Descriptionelastic-animation-interval-ms
long
The minimum amount of time, in milliseconds, between executions of elastic spring animation. elasticity
float
The amount of elasticity to use when a user tries to scroll past the boundaries of the scroll view.
Elasticity is only used when touchScrollBehavior
is set to Elastic.
horizontal-page-size
float
This property controls the speed of the horizontal scrolling when using a keyboard or the on-screen scrollbar buttons (arrows and handle), based on the size of the page.
When scrolling the page size will be applied to the offset for each scroll step, so the final offset will be the page size multiplied by the number of steps. SA: BaseSlider_1::ref::pageSize.
horizontal-scroller-visibility
UIElements.ScrollerVisibility
Specifies whether the horizontal scroll bar is visible. mode
UIElements.ScrollViewMode
Controls how the ScrollView allows the user to scroll the contents. ScrollViewMode
The default is ScrollViewMode.Vertical
. Writing to this property modifies the class list of the ScrollView according to the specified value of ScrollViewMode
. When the value changes, the class list matching the old value is removed and the class list matching the new value is added. mouse-wheel-scroll-size
float
This property controls the scrolling speed only when using a mouse scroll wheel, based on the size of the page. It takes precedence over the âunity-metrics-single_line-height USS variable. nested-interaction-kind
UIElements.ScrollView+NestedInteractionKind
The behavior to use when scrolling reaches limits of a nested ScrollView
. scroll-deceleration-rate
float
Controls the rate at which the scrolling movement slows after a user scrolls using a touch interaction.
The deceleration rate is the speed reduction per second. A value of 0.5 halves the speed each second. A value of 0 stops the scrolling immediately.
vertical-page-size
float
This property controls the speed of the vertical scrolling when using a keyboard or the on-screen scrollbar buttons (arrows and handle), based on the size of the page.
The speed is calculated by multiplying the page size by the specified value. For example, a value of 2
means that each scroll movement covers a distance equal to twice the width of the page.
vertical-scroller-visibility
UIElements.ScrollerVisibility
Specifies whether the vertical scroll bar is visible. Inherited UXML attributes
This element inherits the following attributes from its base class:
Name Type Descriptionfocusable
boolean
True if the element can be focused. tabindex
int
An integer used to sort focusables in the focus ring. Must be greater than or equal to zero.
This element also inherits the following attributes from VisualElement
:
content-container
string
Child elements are added to it, usually this is the same as the element itself. data-source
Object
Assigns a data source to this VisualElement which overrides any inherited data source. This data source is inherited by all children. data-source-path
string
Path from the data source to the value. data-source-type
System.Type
The possible type of data source assignable to this VisualElement.
This information is only used by the UI Builder as a hint to provide some completion to the data source path field when the effective data source cannot be specified at design time.
language-direction
UIElements.LanguageDirection
Indicates the directionality of the elementâs text. The value will propagate to the elementâs children.
Setting the languageDirection to RTL adds basic support for right-to-left (RTL) by reversing the text and handling linebreaking and word wrapping appropriately. However, it does not provide comprehensive RTL support, as this would require text shaping, which includes the reordering of characters, and OpenType font feature support. Comprehensive RTL support is planned for future updates, which will involve additional APIs to handle language, script, and font feature specifications.
To enhance the RTL functionality of this property, users can explore available third-party plugins in the Unity Asset Store and make use of ITextElementExperimentalFeatures.renderedText
name
string
The name of this VisualElement.
Use this property to write USS selectors that target a specific element. The standard practice is to give an element a unique name.
picking-mode
UIElements.PickingMode
Determines if this element can be pick during mouseEvents or IPanel.Pick
queries. style
string
Sets the VisualElement
style values. tooltip
string
Text to display inside an information box after the user hovers the element for a small amount of time. This is only supported in the Editor UI. usage-hints
UIElements.UsageHints
A combination of hint values that specify high-level intended usage patterns for the VisualElement
. This property can only be set when the VisualElement
is not yet part of a Panel
. Once part of a Panel
, this property becomes effectively read-only, and attempts to change it will throw an exception. The specification of proper UsageHints
drives the system to make better decisions on how to process or accelerate certain operations based on the anticipated usage pattern. Note that those hints do not affect behavioral or visual results, but only affect the overall performance of the panel and the elements within. Itâs advised to always consider specifying the proper UsageHints
, but keep in mind that some UsageHints
might be internally ignored under certain conditions (e.g. due to hardware limitations on the target platform). view-data-key
string
Used for view data persistence, such as tree expanded states, scroll position, or zoom level.
This key is used to save and load the view data from the view data store. If you donât set this key, the persistence is disabled for the associated VisualElement
. For more information, refer to View data persistence.
