UIPopUpList doesn't support multiple resolutions
« on: January 23, 2013, 11:09:28 AM »
Hi,

We have a multi-resolution atlas, which we are trying to use with a pop up list. The highlight and the labels seem off (see picture), which is due to the pop up scrip not being built for handling multiple resolutions.

Could you help with fixing this issue, please? What do we need to change in the script to make this work?

Thanks,
Daniela

UIPopupList takes the atlas' pixel size into consideration, so I am not sure what you're referring to. You'll need to elaborate.

With PopUpLists containing lots of entries this happens easily especially with a PopUpLists with all the available screen resolutions being put into it. If the Pop0UpLists starts getting too big for the screen it gets severely off centre on different resolutions, it performs best on the native/recommended resolution ofcourse, but on other resolutions it can move severely off course due to the fact that the size of the PopUpList not fitting into the screen as it should at that particular resolution.

This is still why I say that a PopUpList that supports Scrollbars will be the best resolution, especially for something like resolutions as trying to do it with the ScrollView/TextLabel method is an extreme amount of pain compared to the ease of use of the PopUpList.
