Displaying the art info

Now that we have more information on each art piece, we can incorporate that into our project. We will add a UI canvas to the ArtworkRig. First, we'll include an info plaque with each picture. Then we'll make it interactive. If you'd like a reminder introduction to Unity's canvas and UI elements, please look at Chapter 6, World Space UI.

Creating the title plaque

The title plaque will be a small canvas next to each picture, with a title text UI element:

1. Select one of the ArtworkRig objects in Hierarchy.
2. Add a child canvas, Create UI | Canvas, named InfoPlaque.
3. Set its Render Mode to World Space.
4. Initially reset its position Pos to (0, 0, 0).
5. Set the canvas Width: 640, Height: 480...
