UIScrollView/UIGrid sorting (when set false) on NGUI.AddChild(parent, prefab)

[ngui]

I'm presently using NGUI.AddChild(parent, prefab) to add instances under a UIScrollView/UIGrid. I'm noticing that the instanced objects are sorted alphabetically by name even though I've disabled UIGrid.sorted in the inspector. Instantiating objects myself under the UIScrollView/UIGrid did not have this issue. Please let me know how to keep them unsorted.

Unity sorts objects alphabetically in the project view, but the order in which they appear may not match the project view unless UIGrid's sorting is turned on.

[ngui]

the problem is that the objects are showing up in the UIGrid sorted even though sorting is disabled. I can't seem to keep them in the order which I added them (to the UIGrid).

[ngui]

I noticed that the UIGrid component gets disabled on play, not sure what is causing that and I don't receive any warnings or errors.

[ngui]

So do gameobjects that go under the UIScrollView/UIGrid need to have the same name? otherwise it gets sorted by Unity?

As I mentioned, hierarchy always sorts by name, but Unity doesn't do any sorting as far as I know. The order in which you add children is the order in which they will appear when you iterate through them. This implied run-time instantiation. Edit-time order is different, and varies from one platform to the next.
