Hey,
I have multiple panels that take care of different things, like 1 panel for scrolling combat text, another for character portraits, etc.
I'm using NGUITools.AddChild to instantiate and parent the UI elements to a container in the appropriate panel.
Like the scrolling combat text elements gets added to a container object in the scrolling combat panel.
They get added to the appropriate container object in the panel, but when I go to check the panel's camera, I see that they're not being rendered by that camera, they're using another camera.
But I have a 3rd panel that NGUITools.AddChild to a parent object in that panel, and they're actually rendered with that panel's camera.
So I'm confused why 1 panel is using its camera and another isn't.
EDIT: I found the issue :
NGUITools.FindCameraForLayer(gameObject.layer);
I used this code to get the camera that belongs to the UI element, and it's getting the first camera, which was the WRONG panel I needed.
A quick fix is just to change the layer of each UI element so they get rendered at the appropriate panels since each panel will have a camera for that layer only, etc.

If you have multiple cameras, they should each have their own layer. You shouldn't have more than one camera being able to see the same layer.
