Change UIWidget anchor target on the fly?
« on: July 21, 2016, 04:35:10 PM »
I have a moving (scrolling) widget, and I want to "stick" some sprite to it at a certain time.

I did this...

  1. void Update()
  2. {
  3.         Transform target = (followPushTransform) ? layout.pushTransform : layout.anchorTransform;
  4.         sprite.topAnchor.target = target;
  5.         sprite.bottomAnchor.target = target;
  6. }

...but the sprite refused to move along the widget. I can see the targets update just right on the inspector, but the sprite don't get "stuck". Should I call some widget call on the sprite after adjustment (I tried `UpdateAnchors` with no luck)?

While you can use SetAnchor(target) with optional offset parameters, the easiest thing to do is to reparent the sprite to the widget so that it always moves with it.
