UICamera Touch

[redhawk]

Does anyone have a helpful example script that talks to some of the UICamera touch events?  Not just for Buttons, but for sprites too.  I see with Buttons you can add UIButtonMessage, but it would be nice to get something a little more open that allows me to check any touch on the screen using a for() statement.

I dont really know if i understood your question, but i'll try it: Every Sprite used in NGUI with a collider is able to send events to your camera. The method OnClick() gets called, if you click with your mouse or touch the button / sprite on your mobile device. Events available: http://www.tasharen.com/?page_id=160

I think what I need is some examples of how to use it without writing a C# void OnClick(){} script.  Is there something I can access in javascript, if so is there an example.  It would be awesome if the code had an example use besides the void OnClick().  I haven't had a chance to learn C# yet, but I do understand some of it from my C days back on text based games (MUDs).

1. UIEventListener.Get(targetButtonGameObject).onClick = YourFunction;

The only way I can figure out how to get this to work is to assign my target button.  I want it to auto-assign any button or sprite that might be pushed.  The below code works only if I assign the one Button in my scene to the targetButton.

1. #pragma strict
2. var targetButton:GameObject;
3.  
4. function Update () {
5.  
6.         UIEventListener.Get(targetButton).onClick=ItemClicked;
7. }
8.  
9. function ItemClicked(btnObj : GameObject)
10. {
11.         var btnName : String = btnObj.name;
12.        
13.                 Debug.Log(btnName+" was pressed");
14.        
15. }

Okay, so I went ahead and created an Array instead.  Now I just need to add more listener types to catch all possibilities. 

FYI - I had to add the UIImage Button Script to my Sprite/Image and set the Pressed/Normal/Hover.

1. #pragma strict
2. //var targetButton:GameObject;
3. var targetButtons:GameObject[];
4.  
5. function Update () {
6.         for(var me :GameObject in targetButtons){
7.                 //UIEventListener.Get(targetButton).onClick=ItemClicked;
8.                 UIEventListener.Get(me).onClick=ItemClicked;
9.                 UIEventListener.Get(me).onPress=ItemClicked;
10.         }
11.        
12. }
13.  
14. function ItemClicked(btnObj : GameObject)
15. {
16.         var btnName : String = btnObj.name;
17.        
18.                 Debug.Log(btnName+" was pressed");
19.        
20. }

Here's my attempt at putting this same code in C#

1. sing UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class UICameraTestingC : MonoBehaviour {
5.        
6.         public GameObject[] targetButtons;
7.        
8.         // Update is called once per frame
9.         void Update () {
10.                 foreach(GameObject me in targetButtons){
11.                         //UIEventListener.Get(targetButton).onClick=ItemClicked;
12.                         UIEventListener.Get(me).onClick=ItemClicked;
13.                 }
14.         }
15.         public void ItemClicked(GameObject btnObj)
16.         {
17.        
18.                         Debug.Log(btnObj.name+" was pressed");
19.         }
20. }

Here's a picture of what the array looks like in Unity.
