Flash between switching panels

[robindelange]

Hi there,

We've used NGUI for an app we've just released. When you go to another screen we switch to another panel by a script that basically says:

NGUITools.SetActive(showUI, true);
NGUITools.SetActive(hideUI, false);

Now, during this transition you see an annoying flash, depending on the speed of the mobile device you're working with. The switching between panels is necessary because many of the UI screens use draggable panels. I think the way to go would be to use Tween scripts to let the screens ease in and out. But I haven't found any examples or explanation on this.

I hope someone can help with this problem!

yeah its annoying I find it more noticeable on older devices like ipod touch 4th gen. I jsut use some sort of transition anim or wait for the next panel to load before hiding the old one. Current project I quickly fade in a blackout screen and swap the panels behind it then back to them.

By waiting you mean really starting a CoRoutine and the yield for 0.2 seconds or so?

I use a coroutine to wait for my blackout to fade in tho might try changing that now with 3.0

Is there a way to actually wait to fade? Or do you set a value manually?

Thanks for the help by the way!

I think the tween anims fire off OnFinished events u can listen to.
