Button Highlight Question

[moonface]

Hi,

I'm using NGUI and it is vey good, but am having one slight difficulty and would appreciate some pointers.

When I use the UIButtonTween script to move between two menus (menu1 and menu2) by pressing a button, everything works as expected and I can move from menu1 to menu2 and vice versa.

The difficulty however is that the button on menu1 (being pressed - the one activating UIButtonTween) seems to retain its state. When pressed it expands slightly and turns green (as it should) but when return to menu1 from menu2, it is still green and expanded. I can press it again and move between the menus but it seems to permanently remain in the same state. I am only using UIButtonTween and not animating buttons changes.

I am disabling the button after the message and OnDisable is being called in the UIColorButton script.

Is there anything I have missed out?

Thanks

Are you using NGUI Free? This issue was fixed in the standard version of NGUI a long time ago as far as I know.

No. I'm using the bought version (latest I assume as I bought it yesterday).

Technically no, there was an update overnight -- 2.0.1 is the latest. Do you instantly enable / disable entire windows, or is there a gradual animation?

[moonface]

I'm instantly updating windows at the panel level.

I'll see if I can reproduce it later today.

Many Thanks.

Ok, I see what's happening... it's a matter of which script gets executed first. If your script that activates the panels gets the event first, OnHover messages won't be received because SendMessage doesn't work on deactivated game object. I'll see if I can figure out an elegant solution.

[ArenMook]

I've coded a fix... but I feel it needs more testing before I release it (just to make sure it doesn't break anything else).

[moonface]

Cool. Look forward to trying it.

The fix was a part of 2.0.2

Thanks, this fixes it.

I did notice for anyone else in this situation, or is it a feature  that the order in which the tweening scripts are executed is important. The script moving towards the new menu must precede the script removing the old.

Cheers.
