How do I set UI2DSprite at runtime in Javascript?

[mtran003]

For the life of me, I've search and search but can't seem to find a way to get past this.  In my Javascript code, I have this:

myGameObject.GetComponent("UI2DSprite").sprite2D = "MySprite";

I get this error:

BCE0019: 'sprite2D' is not a member of 'UnityEngine.Component'.


My Kingdom on how to properly set UI2DSprite sprite name using Javascript during runtime.

Thanks in advance.

sprite2D is of type UnityEngine.Sprite, yet you are trying to assign it by text.

You have two options: either pass a UnityEngine.Sprite instead, or change your UI2DSprite to be UISprite instead, using NGUI's atlases. Going with NGUI's atlases you will be able to assign sprites by name.
