Title: AnchorPoint targets not properly set in code?
Post by: lataupe on December 11, 2013, 12:42:17 PM

Hi,

I have tried to change the target of all the anchorpoints of a sprite in code which happens on click.

1. objSpr.leftAnchor.target = firstEmptyCase.transform;
2. objSpr.rightAnchor.target = firstEmptyCase.transform;
3. objSpr.topAnchor.target = firstEmptyCase.transform;
4. objSpr.bottomAnchor.target = firstEmptyCase.transform;

I believe this is the right way to do this as when running, in the inspector, i see the target change. but in fact, in the scene, it doesn't change. If i manually change the target to anything else and back to the right transform, it works.
I don't see why it behaves that way.

If you need any more details or if i'm not clear enough, ask :)

You are doing it the right way, but without calling the CacheAnchors() function (which is protected), there won't be any visible effect.

Why are you doing this anyhow?

Thank you for your reply. I'm doing this to "put" a sprite of any size in a cell so that it fills the whole cell. But if there is a better way to do this, I'd be glad to know it :-)

You can grab the latest (f2) and call ResetAnchors() function to accomplish what you want.
