Custom folding tabs

[Redeemerbansal]

Hello,

Ngui is a great package... I was recently looking into example 9 quest log scene ... And I am trying to make a small modification... I am trying to make the interface react in such a way that if I select one quest tab, either of the other two or both quest tabs if open would automatically collapse.
Now I have tried changing the trigger type in UIButtonTween which are attached to the sliced sprites from OnClick to OnSelect and turns out it kind of works but if I click anywhere else on the screen except where the collider tabs are all the quest tabs collapse.
I merely want that the one I select expands and others collapse on pressing the said tab but I don't want any changes to the interface if I click on any other part of the screen.
 Also I am trying to get it to collapse if I select the same tab twice without changes to the other closed tab.

Could you direct me further on how to make this work,
Thanks,

Red

What you're basically trying to do is replicate how toggles work. Have a look at UIToggle that comes with NGUI. When you give a bunch of toggles the same group, they work as an option group -- so only one can be active at a time.

Thanks for the reply, but I am new to ngui. Is UIToggle a script .?... How do I access it ?.. I do want to look into this because it seems to be a useful feature for UI.

Thanks,

Yes this is a script and you just enter Toggle in the search field of Unity

Searched for it ... Can't find it though in the project tab...  although there is a "play direction" enum type in UIButtonTween having states ... Toggle, Reverse and Forward. But even setting these states in code doesn't seem to have the right effect...

If you can't find it, then you are using NGUI 2, which is not what this support forum is for.

My apologies ... I had the version from the asset store that I had downloaded some months back but just started playing with it and used the forum for the first time.
