TweenPosition and new Anchors

[charliehelman]

UIRect.SetAnchor(null).

Cool! I was getting this error:

Assets/Scripts/UI/UIDisableAnchorAtRuntime.cs(12,24): error CS0121: The call is ambiguous between the following methods or properties: `UIRect.SetAnchor(UnityEngine.Transform)' and `UIRect.SetAnchor(UnityEngine.GameObject)'

I don't know how to feed null to a method any other way, so I just added an entirely new method to your UIRect script instead.

1.     public void SetAnchorToNull ()
2.         {
3.                 leftAnchor.target = null;
4.                 rightAnchor.target = null;
5.                 topAnchor.target = null;
6.                 bottomAnchor.target = null;
7.                
8.                 ResetAnchors();
9.                 UpdateAnchors();
10.         }

Works perfectly so far!

I haven't noticed your answer until now!

I'll try using a gameobject container between panel and widgets. Anyway i find that disabling anchors on all the children after they are positioned (eg: first update loop) let me move the panel without problem.

It seems in the release notes, that the latest version allows you to use TweenPosition with the new anchor system (but didn't try it yet).

i tried placing a gameobject container between panel and widgets... nothing changed (with latest ngui version).

So i'll stay with the old configuration, disabling anchors after widgets are placed (actually we use anchor just for interface and for 4:3 <-> 16:9/10 support).
