size of UILabels

[wouter]

I have an empty gameObject with elements attached and I want to know the size(specifically the height) of them combined.
UILabels have a specific width set, so they grow in Ysize when the text gets more.

I search and found NGUIMath.CalculateRelativeWidgetBounds, but this doesn't give me the right results.
Than I found UIFont.CalculatePrintedSize, but I dont know how to set it up... (how can I use that? example maybe?).

And I think I have to combine them in order to get the height of everything combined?


*small other question;

I want to load a Texture2D into a sprite through script, how can I go about doing that.
This will not be a texture that is in an atlas, but seperate images.

Why is it not giving you the right results? CalculatePrintedSize is for text. CalculateRelativeWidgetBounds is all you need. Specify the panel as the root for that function.

Use UITexture to display non-atlased images.

ah it appears I was making a mistake in my own calculations  , it works.

About the UITexture, It appears my clipping doesnt work on it.
I want to use it as image to zoom into, with clipping...
Is there a way around this?


******edit: nevermind, I shouldn't post before really trying myself  ****

Ok one more question then:

I changed the shader in order to get the clipping on the UITexture.
However, I assign textures to it from another scipt, with texture2D.
I can see the textures switching correctly in the UITexture, but somehow the image wont update during a play test..?

Hi Aren,

is the new update already available.

Since I baught Ngui through your site with paypal, how can I update it?

Hey wouter!

If you bought NGUI through the site, you should have an email with a "personal download link" in it that will always point to the most recent version of NGUI.

So search your email for "NGUI" or "personal download link" and you should find the link you first received.
