For anyone having trouble with spacing causing overflow with more than a 3x3 grid: float cellWidth = (parentWidth / (float)columns) - ((spacing.x / (float)columns) * 2).... Should be: float cellWidth = (parentWidth / (float)columns) - ((spacing.x / (float)columns) * (colums - 1)).... Same for height. Thanks for the great video, keep it up!
Awesome! This also fixed a problem I was having where a grid with two columns erroneously added spacing to the rightmost and bottommost items in the group
Not just 3x3, it's all grids. Wandering if OP left this one little flaw to find those blind copy pasta's out there.

Hey, there are very few TH-camrs who make advanced tutorials so please continue making these videos even when I think I already know everything about the topic I still learn something new from your videos.
Honestly, it's so refreshing to see someone finally talk about these things. As a UI designer myself, it always seems as these topics just fall flat for most smaller/middle-sized projects.
When picking a font, read the font license VERY carefully to avoid copyright issues. I'm pretty sure Unity embeds fonts into the game, and most font licenses don't allow that.
Great advice! Yeah, licensing popular fonts can be very expensive, but there's also a lot of similar ones that are more affordable. Definitely agree that, like anything, it's worth making sure your usage is covered!

I love how you explain what you're doing without making us watch hours of typing and debugging like many other Unity tutorials. Brilliant, right to the point, and right at my level of expertise. Subscribed, and thanks.
For dynamic or flexible grid I always combine a vertical layout group and filled it with horizontal layout groups for the rows and then every horizontal layout group contains the "cell" elements of the current row. You could also achieve a dynamic grid by using the existing grid layout and update the cell size property in code depending on the total grid width / height. But still nice to how a custom layout group can be implemented and bookmarked for later.
I usually don't comment videos. I was already subscribed to you but finding this video looking for a dynamic grid made me activate notifications and comment this. THIS IS AWESOME. Thank you very much!

I’m an Unreal user all the way but your video was still so dang good and useful. Thank you! Unfortunately now TH-cam keeps suggesting Unity videos. Lol :/
It felt a little cathartic when you took a jab at the grid layout in the last video. After seeing that in this video as a UI/UX person I had to sub. One question though: Does this Flexible grid work with a content size fitter?
How have I never seen this channel before?? You have some amazing videos that are very explanatory, concise, and easy to understand. Please continue making videos!
Thanks for making a great series of clear, factual and enjoyable videos. I'd love to see something covering best practices for interfacing your game's logic, variables etc to the UI.
Great videos, my only complaint is not being able to see what components are on the parent objects before you get started. Also did I miss the creation of the "Tab" Script? - I saw TabGroup and TabButton. Assuming you made one off camera? Maybe one day you could do some tutorials for World Space canvas scripts xD
I LOVE your channel!!! You always have exactly what I need!! I've watched every one of your videos now, and they're all just incredible! You deserve more subscribers, I wish there were more videos to watch!
I should check the comments earlier. Was sure something wrong, but still spent a hour trying to understand the logic, as I was sure in great videos like these there are no mistakes.
Yes! I've always dabbled in trying to customize the grid layout group component because of its potential for functionality (despite being lackluster in what it offers initially). Really hope Unity doesn't overhaul it too much in the future.
What sprites did you use around 3:30? Looks like you had a bunch of simple 2d sprites that would be good for UI. Was that an asset pack you could recommend or did you make them yourself?
@@RugbugRedfern You're welcome. I didn't expect any response, since this is 8 months late. :D I just dropped it in response to all the people I saw asking for it so that the NEXT person that came along could find it easily.
To people who are having overflowing issues with spacing, change the lines where you set cellWidth and cellHeight with these. Parentheses are very imporant here. float cellWidth = (parentWidth / columns) - (spacing.x / ((float)columns / (columns - 1))) - (padding.left / (float)columns) - (padding.right / (float)columns); float cellHeight = (parentHeight / rows) - (spacing.y / ((float)rows / (rows - 1))) - (padding.top / (float)rows) - (padding.bottom / (float)rows);
//Tweaked the code to add more functionality //Added a minimum to some variables so they don't go under 0 or 1 //Added all child alignments using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.UI; public class FlexibleGridLayout : LayoutGroup { public enum Alignment { Horizontal, Vertical } public enum FitType { Uniform, Width, Height, FixedRows, FixedColumns, FixedBoth }
public Alignment alignment; [Space] public FitType fitType; [Min(1)] public int columns; [Min(1)] public int rows; [Space] [Min(0)] public Vector2 spacing; public Vector2 cellSize;
This doesn't seem to actually change the cell width or height for me, they're both constant no matter my settings. edit: nvm it's because i had a content size fitter on the object i was putting in there edit 2: nvm again, still doesn't work for some reason
I've been watching many of your UI videos and find them very useful. However, do you think UIElements has matured enough yet to start using it as the main UI system in Unity?
great tutorial, exactly what I am looking for. I wonder if you have plans to add a scrollview to the custom grid layout, which would be extremely useful.
The "Tab Script" used in this video at 2:55 Where is it? I searched through all of his videos, cant find ind anywhere but somehow people here had it somehow?
Cool vid. For the project I'm working on I went for a 3D type menu system that navigates like a point and click adventure. Though at first I was using a typical 2d tabbed grid Ui. It was slow and boring to navigate, The 3D menu made things so much more fluid, fast and fun to navigate. If you are going to make a game with lots to do like my project. Might as well make the menus/inventory fun to open up. That the issue I have with lots of AAA games the menus are slow and boring to navigate and for most open world games you spend to much time in them.
Hey man, this is great! I'll definitely use it to design my UI from now on. I already have a half-baked dynamic grid system, but it's only for dynamically initializing an inventory in a scroll rect. I can see that your solution can be easily adapted to that. Keep up the good work man! I love your tutorials!
Thanks! This is really neat solution! I've (tried) to create something similar, but it wasn't nearly as clean - and I think I just used grid layout group + script that modified grid child sizes...
The biggest problem with the Default Grid Layout is that it assigns a fixed size for each child element and by doing so it creates major resolution scaling problems, especially when the aspect ratio changes. This works very well around the problem and scales accordingly to all aspect ratios and resolutions.
Instead of placing objects into the Home Panel, I instantiated a prefab in a Start() routine and then parent each of those objects to the Home Panel. This worked but the prefab does not change scale to keep the spacing and padding the same when I drag the Home Panel anchors. I'm trying to see how your code changes the size of the images that you have in Home Panel. I see where the cellSize for x and y is calculated by how do the images change from that?
Does the default Grid Component still suck in Unity 2022? Wondering if they addressed these problems.. Also, @Game Dev Guide Thanks so much for the awesome video series, such a great intro to the Unity`s UI system!

for (int i = 0; i < rectChildren.Count; i++)
{
rowCount = i / columns;
columnCount = i % columns;
if(fitType == FitType.WIDTH || fitType == FitType.HEIGHT)
{
var rest = (rows * columns) - i;
if (i == rectChildren.Count - 1 && rest > 0)
{
cellSize.x *= rest;
columnCount /= rest;
}
}
var item = rectChildren[i];
var xPos = (cellSize.x * columnCount) + (spacing.x * columnCount) + padding.left;
var yPos = (cellSize.y * rowCount) + (spacing.y * rowCount) + padding.top;
SetChildAlongAxis(item, 0, xPos, cellSize.x);
SetChildAlongAxis(item, 1, yPos, cellSize.y);
}
Also someone write the script and put it on github so yall don't need to pause and copy for the eternity.

Amusingly, by bypassing Unity's grid system and making their own haha
Not only that, but it gets right to the point and it's not a series of 27 videos where you watch someone type and debug for hours!

The biggest problem with the Default Grid Layout is that it assigns a fixed size for each child element and by doing so it creates major resolution scaling problems, especially when the aspect ratio changes. This works very well around the problem and scales accordingly to all aspect ratios and resolutions.

I've been waiting for this video for a long time!
Instead of placing objects into the Home Panel, I instantiated a prefab in a Start() routine and then parent each of those objects to the Home Panel. This worked but the prefab does not change scale to keep the spacing and padding the same when I drag the Home Panel anchors. I'm trying to see how your code changes the size of the images that you have in Home Panel. I see where the cellSize for x and y is calculated by how do the images change from that?
For anyone needing the fixedWidth and fixedHeight I added this:
// fixed width
if (fitType == FitType.FixedWidth)
{
// calculated columns based on width and spacing
float width = rectTransform.rect.width;
colums = Mathf.FloorToInt((width + spacing.x) / (cellSize.x + spacing.x));
rows = Mathf.CeilToInt(transform.childCount / colums);
}
// fixed height
if (fitType == FitType.FixedHeight)
{
// calculated rows based on height and spacing
float height = rectTransform.rect.height;
rows = Mathf.FloorToInt((height + spacing.y) / (cellSize.y + spacing.y));
colums = Mathf.CeilToInt(transform.childCount / rows);
}
All of your vídeos are great. Thank you by that :)
