Title: Possible to have a button, when highlighted by a dpad, reacts to dpad up / down
Post by: PompeyBlue on September 05, 2016, 05:23:07 AM

Hello

Basically as the topic states. I have a button which I can navigate to using my dpad. However I want more than simply click. I want, if it's highlighted, to pick up up/down and to call two separate functions based on whether the up/down is called. I guess I could have my own script which checks what is highlighted in NGUI and then checks for joystick up/down and calls relevant functions but was wondering if this functionality is available in NGUI already? It looks similar to sliders.

Object currently selected by the controller (UICamera.controllerNavigationObject) will receive events, including key events like button presses. In Windward I had buttons react to D-Pad keys for navigation as well by simply using UIKeyNavigation. All you have to do is set the horizontal and vertical axis names on your UICamera to the D-Pad axes.
