Different sprites size

[koskeller]

Hi. Why NGIU and Unity (2d project) uses different sprite size? For example, i have sprite 1024x768, and i added it as GameObject with SpriteRenderer, and then i added it as 2D Sprite from NGUI. Look what i got: https://www.dropbox.com/s/x5u0hkg8pcyw07m/Screenshot%202014-02-25%2000.41.40.png

Both have default settings.

2d sprites don't use the UIRoot's virtual pixels as it makes them by inversely scaling the resolution.

I'm actually not entirely sure how the 2d sprites determine their size, because you can set things like point size something directly on the sprite asset.

Essentially, you can't count on 2d sprite's size for anything. I think the missized UI2dSprite is because you have the game view in the background; then Unity gets confused about the size of the view and report a weird Screen.height which makes NGUI size it wrong.

Both use different virtual pixels. NGUI uses actual screen pixels by default (2 / Screen.height, if the UIRoot is left as "pixel perfect"). The 2D system uses 1/100 by default (and you can change this in options).

It is possible to setup single virtual pixels system?

Can you? Sure. Set UIRoot to be Fixed Size and give it a height of 200.
