How to combine pause and unpause game button in unity [C#] with GUI?

Question

I am working on a Unity C# game and I want my pause button to be GUI [with the pause and unpause image displayed on click].

Any help would be great.Thank you so much!!!

what did you already tried? are you using new UI or legacy GUI? — Frohlich, Aug 10 '16 at 12:45
(1) click "add canvas" (2) click "add Button". You're done. **Note this important tip** ... http://stackoverflow.com/a/36268018/294884 — Fattie, Aug 10 '16 at 13:01
@JoeBlow That answer is from March, is it still using the wrong settings? — Riley, Aug 10 '16 at 15:19

The easiest way is to create new Button object, and add proper method for displaying correct image. Something like this:

public class ButtonStateHandler:MonoBehaviour
{
    public bool isClicked;
    public Button myBtn;
    public Sprite Play;
    public Sprite Pause;

    public void Click(){
        changeState();
    }
    private void changeState(){
        isClicked = !isClicked;
        if(isClicked)       myBtn.image.sprite = Play;
        else myBtn.image.sprite = Pause;
        }
}

And then remember to add Click method in the inspector to OnClick list on Play/Pause button.
