How to handle multiple in-game 3D UIs

[gg67]

Hey there,

I plan on having some for of NGUI UI above each player's avatar. However, I'm not sure the best way to go about this as it seems that every NGUI widget must be a child of the UIRoot object. Should I be using multiple UIRoots (I've read multiple places you don't recommend this)? Should I just update the UI positions manually while they are all a child a UIRoot?

Whats the best way to do something like this?

Thanks

I've answered this yesterday, and a day before.

UIRoot is optional. All you need is a UIPanel.

1. New game object.
2. Attach UIPanel, scale it so it's not huge (0.01, 0.01, 0.01)
3. Widgets go under it.
