Customization

The AppKit uses Unity's UI Toolkit system. By following this guide,you can customize the AppKit to match your game's style, even if you have minimal or no prior knowledge of UI Toolkit.

Theming

The AppKit relies heavily on Unity Style Sheet (USS) variables for easy customization of various UI aspects, such as colors, spacing, border radius, and more.

Preparation

The first step in theming the AppKit is to create a custom panel settings asset, followed by a custom theme file. Then, link them to the AppKit.

  1. In Unity Editor, right-click in the Project window and select Create -> UI Toolkit -> Panel Settings Asset.
  2. Right-click again in the Project window and select Create -> UI Toolkit -> TSS Theme File.
  3. Select the newly created Panel Settings Asset, and in the Inspector window, assign the newly created TSS Theme File to the Theme Style Sheet field.
  4. In the same Inspector window, set Reference DPI to 160. This is the recommended DPI for the AppKit, but feel free to adjust it to your needs.

  1. Open the TSS Theme File with your code editor and change the first line to:
@import url("/Packages/com.walletconnect.web3modal/UI Toolkit/WUI Base Theme.tss");
  1. Under Web3Modal prefab instance in your scene or prefab find Modal child object and assign the newly created Panel Settings Asset to the Panel Settings field of UI Document component.

Everything is set up, now you can start customizing the AppKit to match your game's style.

Overriding Variables

To override a variable, simply add it to your TSS Theme File and assign a new value to it. The example below changes the accent color to a shade of orange and the modal border color to a shade of gray.

@import url("/Packages/com.walletconnect.web3modal/UI Toolkit/WUI Base Theme.tss");

* {
--wui-color-accent-100: rgb(156, 81, 65);

--wui-accent-glass-090: rgba(156, 81, 65, 0.9);
--wui-accent-glass-080: rgba(156, 81, 65, 0.8);
--wui-accent-glass-020: rgba(156, 81, 65, 0.2);
--wui-accent-glass-015: rgba(156, 81, 65, 0.15);
--wui-accent-glass-010: rgba(156, 81, 65, 0.1);
--wui-accent-glass-005: rgba(156, 81, 65, 0.05);
--wui-accent-glass-002: rgba(156, 81, 65, 0.02);
}

Modal {
--wui-modal-border-color: #9a9085;
--wui-modal-border-width: 3px;
}

You can find the list of all available variables in the WUI Base Theme file.

If you find that a variable is missing, please open a GitHub issue. We will be happy to add it for you.

Custom Fonts

To override the default font, you need to add a custom font to your project and reference it in the TSS Theme File.

@import url("/Packages/com.walletconnect.web3modal/UI Toolkit/WUI Base Theme.tss");

* {
-unity-font-definition: resource("Custom Fonts/Comic Sans SDF Regular");
}

From the point of font asset management, the TextCore engine is very similar to TextMesh Pro. Please refer to the UI Toolkit documentation for more information.

Advanced Customization

The AppKit follows the MVP (Model-View-Presenter) architecture, allowing you to customize the UI and behavior by replacing the default views and presenters with your own. Views load UXML layout files from the Resources folder and configure bindings. Presenters handle the business logic and communicate with the views. In some cases, presenters can build views dynamically and pass them to another view. Below are two examples showing how to customize both static UXML-based views and dynamic views.

Dynamic View Customization

The Account view has a list of buttons at the bottom. At the moment of writing, there are only two buttons in the list: Network and Disconnect. Because in the future this list will include more buttons, some of which will depend on project configuration, the list is built dynamically inside of AccountPresenter. In this example we will be adding a custom button that opens OpenSea profile page of connected account.

Let's create a custom presenter and override the method that creates the bottom buttons list.

public class CustomAccountPresenter : AccountPresenter
{
public CustomAccountPresenter(RouterController router, VisualElement parent) : base(router, parent)
{
}

protected override void CreateButtons(VisualElement buttonsListView)
{
base.CreateButtons(buttonsListView);
}
}

Let's copy the button creation code from the base presenter and modify it to create an OpenSea button.

private void CreateOpenSeaButton(VisualElement buttonsListView)
{
var openSeaIcon = Resources.Load<Sprite>("OpenSea Logo");
var openSeaButton = new ListItem(
"OpenSea",
openSeaIcon,
OnOpenSeaButtonClick,
iconType: ListItem.IconType.Circle,
iconStyle: ListItem.IconStyle.Accent);

Buttons.Add(openSeaButton);
buttonsListView.Add(openSeaButton);
}

private void OnOpenSeaButtonClick()
{
var address = Web3Modal.AccountController.Address;
var url = $"https://opensea.io/{address}";
Application.OpenURL(url);
}

Now we need to call CreateOpenSeaButton method from CreateButtons method. The final presenter should look like this:

public class CustomAccountPresenter : AccountPresenter
{
public CustomAccountPresenter(RouterController router, VisualElement parent) : base(router, parent)
{
}

protected override void CreateButtons(VisualElement buttonsListView)
{
CreateOpenSeaButton(buttonsListView);

base.CreateButtons(buttonsListView);
}

private void CreateOpenSeaButton(VisualElement buttonsListView)
{
var openSeaIcon = Resources.Load<Sprite>("OpenSea Logo");
var openSeaButton = new ListItem(
"OpenSea",
openSeaIcon,
OnOpenSeaButtonClick,
iconType: ListItem.IconType.Circle,
iconStyle: ListItem.IconStyle.Accent);

Buttons.Add(openSeaButton);
buttonsListView.Add(openSeaButton);
}

private void OnOpenSeaButtonClick()
{
var address = Web3Modal.AccountController.Address;
var url = $"https://opensea.io/{address}";
Application.OpenURL(url);
}
}

The last step is to replace the default presenter with the custom one.

All screens in the AppKit modal (e.g. Account, Wallet Search, QR Code, etc.) are called modal view. The class that is responsible for storing, hiding, and showing the modal views is RouterController. To replace a modal view implementation with a custom one, you need to create a custom presenter and pass it to the RegisterModalView method of RouterController.

// Get a reference to ModalController and cast it to ModalControllerUtk.
// ModalControllerUtk is used by UI Toolkit version of the AppKit.
// It's used on all platforms except WebGL.
var modalController = (ModalControllerUtk)Web3Modal.ModalController;
if (modalController != null)
{
// Get RouterController
var routerController = modalController.RouterController;

// Create an instance of the custom presenter and register it as a `Account` modal view.
var customAccountPresenter = new CustomAccountPresenter(routerController, routerController.RootVisualElement);
routerController.RegisterModalView(ViewType.Account, customAccountPresenter);
}

You can register modal views at any point in the game lifecycle. The RouterController will dispose of the previous presenter and replace it with the new one.

If you find that some parts of the presenter can't be customized, please open a GitHub issue.

Static View Customization

All core views in the AppKit accept optional path to the UXML layout file in the constructor.

Let's extend the CustomAccountPresenter class we made in the previous example to use a custom UXML layout file. To do so, override CreateViewInstance method and return a new instance of AccountView with a custom UXML layout path.

protected override AccountView CreateViewInstance()
{
return new AccountView("UI/CustomAccountView");
}

Make sure to link original or custom USS file from your UXML layout file.

Example

You can find a complete example of the customization in the Customization sample project.
