Adding an Anchor to a new GameObject.

[FuzzySmurf]

Im trying to add new progressbars to each new instantiated gameObject (soldiers).

These soldiers have a vitality script, and I have this bit into the vitality script.

1. public GameObject pbar; //my instantiated health bar.
2. public void Awake()
3. {
4.                 pbar = NGUITools.AddChild(GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Panel"), pbar);
5.  
6.                 pbar.AddComponent<UIAnchor>();
7.                 pbar.GetComponent<UIAnchor>().container = this.gameObject;
8. }

However, it instantiates it the bars at 0,0,0.

Before, I only had addchild, and "pbar.transform.position = this.transform.position;" in Update Script, but I figured their was a better way to do it with Anchors.

any ideas on how to anchor the instantiated GameObject properly?

UIAnchor was deprecated in 3.0.7.

To anchor a widget to a game object, simply set it as the widget's target for left, right, top, and bottom anchor points. I made several videos explaining the new layout system and how it works:
