Hello all,

I've noticed lately that multiple object editing in Unity is acting funny.

Lets say I have 5 gameobjects, each with a different X and Y position, and I want to only change the Z position.  I select all 5 and when I change the Z position, the X and Y auto change to 0.  This happens with both NGUI gameobjects and non-NGUI gameobjects and only with NGUI installed.

I tried this on a project that doesn't have NGUI installed and this issue does not happen. I then installed NGUI and it started happening.

Also how do you turn off the NGUI Scene "help" tools that popup when you select an NGUI game object?

I'm not sure about the positioning, but the helper gizmos can be disabled in the NGUI menu in the top in the lowest entry "Toggle Draggable Handles" then select another widget and it will be gone.

Hello,

Thanks for that tip, I turned off the Draggable Handles, but the multi-Object editing issue is still there.

Oh yeah, reminds me to fix that transform bug...

Delete "TransformInspector" if you don't like it.

Ok, I deleted the "NGUITransformInspector" script and I now get two red warnings:


Assets/NGUI/Scripts/Editor/UIPanelTool.cs(269,37): error CS0103: The name `NGUITransformInspector' does not exist in the current context
Assets/NGUI/Scripts/Editor/UIPanelTool.cs(270,41): error CS0103: The name `NGUITransformInspector' does not exist in the current context

and the transform area in the inspector on all gameobjects has no numbers only " Multi-Object Editing not supported" even with only one gameobject selected.
