Title: Slider Thumb Placement is wrong - How to fix it?
Post by: Chaosgod_Espér on November 30, 2015, 05:43:26 AM

Hi there..

I tried to create a Slider with this Sprites:
Background

Foreground
(http://fs5.directupload.net/images/151130/j34sverx.png)
Thumb
(http://fs5.directupload.net/images/151130/lq6hkf5v.png)


I´m using the latest NGUI version, and created the Slider that way:
• create Empty child
• NGUI -> Attach -> Slider Script
• create the UISprites as children of the SliderObject
  (the Foreground and Background are sliced)
• All Widget privots are Center/Center
• The Thumb Sprite has a BoxCollider attached (with auto adjust size)
• Slider Directionis "Bottom To Top"

The Results:

What have i made wrong?

I can only suggest having a look at provided slider controls to see what differs from yours. Make sure you are using scales of (1, 1, 1).

The same problem is in the Examples..
It seems like the Thumb is always placed in the center of the Foreground.. 


Isn´t there a way to create a slider or scrollbar, where the thumb is at the outer edge of the bar, instead of this worng placed thing?


Edit: ugly workaround:

• Slider Main (UISlider, Background Sprite, Foreground Sprite, Thumb)
• • Background Sprite
• • Foreground Sprite with alpha 0, offset of Y -248
• • Foreground visible Graphic, with Y offset of -232 and no affect to the slider - just to show the red inner
• • Thumb (with BoxCollider)

It´s a bit stupid to need a transparent graphic as Foreground, to adjust the Thumb position, and a visible Foreground, to show something ._.

The thumb is just a gameobject. It doesn't need to be a sprite. You can just have a game object there that has a sprite as a child, and adjust the sprite's position accordingly.
