Creating Views- HTML?

[iamchairs]

When creating views, popups, windows, etc. Is it possible to use HTML? Or is GUILayout used to painstakingly draw everything?

Supposedly some HTML (renamed to Unity markup) can be used for some things, but I'm afraid for the layout you'll either need to write an HTML-to-GUI translator (it would be easier to rebuild the planet out of toothpicks I think) or tackle the GUI code.

You use GUILayout to create windows and buttons and such.

You can use HTML formatting codes for the text that goes in the GUI that you've created.

Yeah, trying to recreate html is not a great idea. But I don't think it would be too difficult to have something like-

<Box width="100%">
  <Button left="20" top="20" style="[GUIStyle params]" click="someMethod()">Button Text</Button>
</Box>

I almost think it would take as long to create that as it would be to manually create a view. But the former would be more fun.
