Scrollable Table, update entries

[langem]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to create a scrollable table with entries that are updated at the beginning. It works ok so far, but I have a weird error. This is my structure:

- Panel (UIPanel + UIScrollView)
    -Table (UITable)
       - Entry 1 (BoxCollider + UIDragScrollView)
       - Entry 2 (BoxCollider + UIDragScrollView)
       - ...

1. for(int i=0; i<myCount; i++)
2.         {
3.                 GameObject g = Instantiate(MyGameObject) as GameObject;
4.                 g.SetActive(true);
5.                 g.transform.parent = myTable.transform;
6.                 g.transform.localScale = Vector3.one;
7.                 g.name=MyGameObject.name;
8.                 }
9.                 myTable.Reposition();
10.  

The problem is that the entries don't show up altough they are there. They are somehow invisible, but they appear one I start to scroll/drag the entries.

Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks and best regards,
Matthias

You have to use the methods in NGUITools.XXX() instead of the method of Unity to make it work (NGUITools.Instantiate, NGUITools.SetActive, NGUITools.Destroy, ...)

Thanks for your quick answer Cripple, but that didn't solve the problem... Still weird that the entries become visible only if I drag them...

Can you copy paste your code pls?

I tried this code (since there seems to be not NGUITools.Instantiate):

1.  
2. for(int i=0; i<myCount; i++)
3. {
4.         GameObject g = NGUITools.AddChild(par.gameObject, friendEntry);
5.         NGUITools.SetActive(g, true);
6. }
7.        
8. par.Reposition();
9.  

Also I play around a little bit more and it seems to be a problem with the alpha clipping of the panel. If I switch it off the entries are displayed from the beginning... hmm... strange

I just tried this:

1. if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.A))
2. {
3. if(myPanel.clipping==UIDrawCall.Clipping.None)
4. myPanel.clipping = UIDrawCall.Clipping.AlphaClip;
5. else
6. myPanel.clipping = UIDrawCall.Clipping.None;
7. }
8.  

I set the clipping mode to none and then back to AlphaClip the Entries show. Do I have to reset the clipping mode if I update the table or something? Thanks.

What version of NGUI are you using?

[langem]

I'm using "v3.0.8 f4".

That explains it. Please update. And in the future always update first, post later.

Thanks. That fixed it and you're right... I'll update more often
