Absolute position of a texture

[Roots]

Hi,

Is there an easy way to get the absolute position off a texture in NGUI? I have a 2D texture and want to know were exactly the user clicked. Maybe this is basic Unity stuff but was hoping someone tackled this already.

For the X i can simply take screenwidth - width of the texture, call this TextureX (as the texture is on a top-right anchor) and then use UICamera.lastTouchPosition.x - TextureX.

For the Y it is a bit trickier as the texture is not at the top OR bottom of the screen but somewhere in the middle.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

You shouldn't use just flat out position/localposition. Instead use UIWidget.localCorners. This gives you the local corner positions. Take the mouse position, ScreenToWorldPoint it so it's in world space, then widgetTransform.InverseTransformPoint it into local space. You now have a local rectangle, and a local point. The rest is easy.

Like this below?

transform.InverseTransformPoint(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(UICamera.lastTouchPosition))

Not seeing the expected result, i am getting the localCorners part, that seems to work fine but i think I am doing something wrong above?

Thanks

Camera.main is your game camera. You need to use the UI camera.
