StackOverflowException 3.07 UIRect

[LennDolling]

3.0.7 f3

I created a sprite to use as a mask for a flashlight....  and I am needing to have the sprite move infront of the gameworld as I touch the screen to mask the world....  but in doing so when I update the transform sprite during runtime to any position besides 0,0,0 the values get out of wack...

in trying to perhaps put the sprite on a panel first and then manipulate the transform from the panel has created a stack overflow....

Panel--
        -Sprite

I dragged the sprite object onto the panel... and poOf

Curious. You're ending up with a cyclic dependency here. I'd be curious to know how I can go about reproducing it on my end. I'd also be curious to know if changing UIRect.OnValidate function to the following would fix it:

1.         protected virtual void OnValidate()
2.         {
3.                 OnDisable();
4.                 ResetAnchors();
5.                 Invalidate(true);
6.                 OnEnable();
7.         }

I will change it on my end and see if it goes away...  sweet fast response....  since the issue with getting the sprite to move during a game event was not happening I decided to just make a simple plane and write a script to go infront of the camera seemed to make a nice flashlight proof of concept first try at it....*cough second....

I will update ...  I am not sure if the method I am doing is the most effective method..

first preview video of the game I am putting together

Update:  just added code and did a test...

video shows the issue....

could be how I created the sprite object as just to a base of the camera... then dragged it to the panel...

in the second run after deleting the code and removing the panel...  all the atlas's turned to the pink...  as I remember a long time ago.... I just saved everything and restarted unity and things where back to normal.

Well, I added code that exits out early in the latest Pro version, so the issue will be gone on its own.
