UIButton

[hairyconiption]

I created an object to use as a prefab for all the items in my inventory. It works fine except the prefabs UIButton lose there target parameter when I create them. I am using
ItemObject = NGUITools.AddChild (ParentObject, ItemPrefab);
To create them, and I can modify all the values to be what they should be and place it fine in my scroll view.... What is going on? Why does the target get lost?

Prefabs can't reference anything outside the prefabs. Think about it, they don't exist as a part of your scene.

I've set onHover state to play a scale tween on a button. When i hit play on the unity game view, the buttons default (start state) is onHover. it comes scaled up already without me hovering over it. Any suggestions where i would have messed up? Sorry im fairly new to NGUI.

You need to disable the tween component. If you leave it enabled, it will start tweening as soon as you hit Play.

How do i only trigger the pressed state of a UIButton, when i click the left mousebutton?

by default a button and it´s remote method gets triggered by all onClick events which happens to be left, right and middle mousebutton clicks. I can easily make the remote trigger only on a left click using this:

1. public void Button()
2.     {
3.         if (UICamera.currentTouchID == -1)
4.         {
5.             doStuff();
6.         }
7.        
8.     }

But i have no idea how to trigger the UIButton components colorchange for "pressed" only for a specific pressed mousebutton, without changing the UIButton class itself.

This is already like that by default in the latest version of NGUI in the Pro repository (3.9.7). It's basically a matter of checking what the current touch ID. I modified the UIButton to do it, like so:

1.         protected virtual void OnClick ()
2.         {
3.                 if (current == null && isEnabled && UICamera.currentTouchID != -2 && UICamera.currentTouchID != -3)
4.                 {
5.                         current = this;
6.                         EventDelegate.Execute(onClick);
7.                         current = null;
8.                 }
9.         }

Awesome. Thanks. I´ll wait until the changes are pushed to the Assets Store to update.

Hi all, I'm new to this so appologies if I'm asking a stupid question...

When using a sprite with button component attached, and a label for the button nested as a child... is there an obvious way of making the label text hover in the same way that the sprite/ button BG has options for hover colour/active colour etc? I'm not sure if I'm being stupid and missing something obvious, or if it's something that's more difficult to do than I would expect?

Any help would be massively welcome, thanks

You can attach multiple UIButton / UIButtonColor components.
