positioning UIGrid

[Karel]

Hey,

I have a UIGrid component in my scene, but I have a hard time positioning it. It does not have an UIWidget, and therefore can't be properly positioned relative to the parent widget like all other widgets can. I can't attach an UIWidget through the menu's either, so I assume I am not supposed to.

When I add widgets to the UIGrid, they are centered in the parent grid because the UIGrid object is positioned at [0,0]. I want to be able to use the anchors to, for example, position the content of the grid on top of the parent widget.

Is this possible? Thanks!

UIGrid modifies the transform.localPosition of all of its children. The grid's position is its origin point -- all children are positioned to the right and below that point. Grid has no bounds, so there is nothing to anchor. It's just a positioning helper script. If you want to reposition the grid itself, use NGUIMath.Calculate series of functions to calculate the bounds of the grid, then adjust its position accordingly.
