my mistake, your problems comes from the clipping panel has a root panel with clip
I have tried change the shader as PoN's suggestion, but it does not work :(

Post by: Nseries on August 07, 2013, 11:26:13 AM: Yes, my problem comes from root panel. A have a 2 clip panels in hierarchy and the first panel (root panel) is dont want clip second panel. Root panel clipped all except for inside panel. I dont know how to force root panel clip second panel.
Thank you galuodo for try help me, and sorry for my English) Maybe somebody else know how make this clip?

On root panel you should to enable clipping ,but on a second panel - disable clipping and set MATERIAL (not shader) with clipping shader for UIWidgets in hierarchy of a second panel.

but there is probably a way how to implement it (nested panels)?

Post by: broken on August 11, 2013, 11:56:04 PM: Aren, what constraint does not allow to add such functionality in NGUI?
Title: Re: Problem with clipping
Post by: ArenMook on August 12, 2013, 03:34:42 PM: Correct. As I said, each panel can only clip widgets directly underneath it. Clipping is done by passing a matrix to a shader.
