```csharp
public static Vector3 Vector3Field(string label, Vector3 value, params GUILayoutOption[] options)
```

### Parameters

**** (\[string]\(https\://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)): Label to display above the field.**** (\[Vector3]\(/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/vector3)): The value to edit.**** (\[GUILayoutOption\[]]\(/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/guilayoutoption)): An optional list of layout options that specify extra layout properties. Any values passed in here will override settings defined by the `style`.\
