Turning off UISprite's "Fill Center" via code?

[pradafang]

Hello everyone,

Currently I'm working on a script that creates a sliced sprite and adds it to my scene. However, I haven't been able to turn off the "Fill Center" check box via code. I need to turn it off for many sprites, so turning it off manually each time isn't the best idea.

Can someone tell me which property I must modify in order for the "Fill Center" to appear off?

Basically what I'm doing is something like:

1. UISprite outline = go.AddComponent<UISprite>();
2. //Then I do stuff related to sprite size, name, and other properties
3.  
4. outline.type = UISprite.Type.Sliced;
5. //Turn off "Fill Center" here somehow
6.  

If you could help me out, I would really appreciate it!

Hi,

Not sure if this helps but looking into the inspector, it looks like it's done like so:

1. sp = serializedObject.FindProperty("centerType");
2. bool val = (sp.intValue != (int)UISprite.AdvancedType.Invisible);
3.  
4. if (val != EditorGUILayout.Toggle("Fill Center", val))
5. {
6.         sp.intValue = val ? (int)UISprite.AdvancedType.Invisible : (int)UISprite.AdvancedType.Sliced;
7. }
8.  

So I assume, sprite.centerType.intValue?

You're right!

Setting my sprite's centerType to UISprite.AdvancedType.Invisible made it work.

Thanks!
