TOPIC: Taking a string as a ui_input uniform

Taking a string as a ui_input uniform 10 months 2 weeks ago #1

is it possible to have a string as an input for ui_input? it works fine for numbers and single characters, but i can't use "string" as a type.

What do you mean? How would a string be converted to one of the uniform variable primitive types (bool, int, uint, float)?

You can't use strings in shader code. The only option is to use preprocessor definitions.
