Play animation in a different Sprite with UIButtonPlayAnimation

[jeldrez]

How I play animations in a different sprite using UIButtonPlayAnimation, I want to press a button and move a different element.

I didn't realize how to do it.

If you want to switch a sprite to a specific one, then do just that -- sprite.spriteName = "abc".

Sorry, but I didn't get it.
What I want it's moving other widgets pressing a button with PlayAnimation, not changing the name, or I'm not getting it?

I'm not sure what you are trying to do. UIButtonPlayAnimation allows you to trigger an animation. But you have to create this animation first using the Unity's animation window tool (CTRL+6). For how to create this animation, consult Unity's documentation.

I've already done the animations, but what I figure out it's that UIButtonPlayAnimation just play animations attached to the widget.


UIRoot
- Camera
-- Anchor
--- Panel1
---- Button1 (UIButtonPlayAnimation)
--- Panel2
--- Button2 (with animation attached) <- this should move when pressing Button1


I want when you press Button1 it moves Button2, so I attached animation on Button2. Because if I attached to Button1 it moves this button instead Button2.


I'm doing it wrong? that's not the way?

UIButtonPlayAnimation has a "target" parameter which determines which animation it will play.

Ohh, sorry, I was trying to drop just the animation on the target parameter, and that doesn't work, now I just drag and drop the widget that contains the animation and it works perfectly.

Thanks a lot Aren! (mostly for your patience!)
