Manual refresh of UIPanel?

[ENAY]

Ok, this is a problem that can be solved in about 5 seconds in one line of code. Just trying to find that particular code.

I have a draggable UIPanel with buttons in it, as I drag back and forth everything works ok. I have a cursor in my slider which highlights a button when I click on it.

The problem I have is that when I click a new button, the graphic does not update unless I drag the panel again, even though nothing is set to static. Basically what I am looking for is something like this.

MyNGUIObj.RefreshUILabel();

Just to be sure:

You click button A and A highlights fine. You click button B, which should highlight button B and "de-highlight" button A?


Anyways, you can call the panel's refresh.

1. myWidget.panel.refresh();

Hi Nicki,

Well I have no idea where to find this "refresh()" function. I have tried getting components and looking everywhere. Such as UIPanel, UISprite, UIWidget, UIAnchor etc.

I can get at .panel in most objects but there is no hint of a refresh function.

BTW I have all my button highlighting stuff all working already. It is just that nothing is being refreshing until I drag the UIPanel.

You could also try to mark the object as changed (MarkAsChanged()).

By the way, an update. (I forgot about this thread)

Suddenly my gfx of the UISlider came out corrupted, everything turned into squares, I couldn't figure that problem out either. So I rebooted my PC and guess what? All my problems were magically solved?!.... so in the end I didn't even need the refresh option. Everything is working ok now.

Have no idea what was going on there.
