UITexture disappears

[citizen12]

I am trying a small test with NGUI.  I created a New UI, then created a New Widget -- UITexture.  I place a texture on it and can see the rectangle in the Game view.  I then hit Play an the texture disappears from the Game view.  It does not come back when I hit stop.  Also, even though I see that the game object still has the UITexture script, the other info, like the Depth and Make Pixel-Perfect UI elements have gone away.  I have to reset the Texture in order for them to come back.  I am using 3.5.4.

What version of NGUI do you use? There was an issue in one of the earlier versions but has since been fixed.

Having the same problem. I'm using Unity 3.5.4 with NGUI 2.1.3.

Hmm you're right. Something must have gotten broken in the last update. Lemme fix it.

[citizen12]

Looking forward to the fix.  Thanks.

Have you updated to 2.1.4? i believe that we have already fixed this.... Let us know if its still not working.

[citizen12]

I updated to 2.1.4 and Unity 3.5.5.  It's still broken.  I can send you my project if it would help.

Try this UITexture file and see if it still happens.

Same thing.  After 3 or 4 plays, it just chokes and the custom property window for the UITexture goes away.

I don't know if it matters, but I am setting the mainTexture property on my UITexture in script when my game is running.

If you set it while the game is running, then it will not (and should not) persist when you stop the game.

How am I supposed to modify the Depth & Pivot etc if that UI goes away?

Set the texture edit mode.

Set the texture edit mode.

Not sure what you mean by that.

[ArenMook]

In the editor, while the application is not running, choose a texture that will be used by UITexture by selecting it via the inspector window.

FYI RenderTextures made this happen every time to me (drop a RTT on a UITexture texture inspector) - but the patched file above fixed it . I spoke too soon. The updated file above makes it work in edit mode but after playing it disappears. The temporary fix is to make a material for the RT, and then it works..

Thanks!
