Selecting UIInput via code

[Groszq]

Hi there!

I need to activate UIInput via code to make a system of Private Message, Offer trade and etc. in the game, which Im woking on. Is there any possibility to create something like that?

I use UIInput.selected property, but it still doesn't work properly.

1.                 selectedChannel.transform.FindChild("InputField").GetComponent<UIInput>().label.text = "/whisper " + playerName + " ";
2.                 selectedChannel.transform.FindChild("InputField").GetComponent<UIInput>().selected = true;

Thanks in advance!

1. Never use Find. Bad practice, slow, and is based on name -- something that you can easily change without thinking.

2. Look at the chat example that comes with NGUI. Pressing Enter activates input there.
