NGUI unparents my elements

[laurentl]

when I parent a sprite under another sprite, when I press play the child gets unparented.
Adding a panel to the parent doesn't work
How do I keep the parenting ?

Widgets should never be parents of other widgets. Your scale will fuck up and your mind will explode.

Make a comment parent instead

-ParentObject: scale 1,1,1
--widget1: scale: pixelX, pixely, 1
--widget2: scale: pixelX, pixely, 1

Ok, I nuked all the UI stuff from the parent and it works which may be similar to your comment parent (?).

Nicki's "comment" was supposed to mean "common". Common parent.

NGUI spits out a warning when it re-parents objects. If you double-click this warning, it takes you to a pretty detailed explanation, with an ASCII drawing to boot.

I keep wording words. Common parent. yes.
