UI Element Transform being set incorrectly
public void InstallButton(HUDButton button) {
GameObject btnObject = Instantiate (button.gameObject);
btnObject.transform.SetParent (gameObject.transform);
Vector2 pos = new Vector2 (button.PreferredIndex () * 85f, -32.5f);
btnObject.transform.position = pos;
}
I am able to see that pos below is the value that I expect, but the object that I believe to be affected by this function in the scene has a different transform position than this value. Is there some order of operations or lifecycle circumstances that I'm not taking into account? Is there any other information that I'm just totally missing?
NOTE: This is a UI component and so I understand that this might have different vector space?
You need to set the Transform.localPosition instead if you want your ui element's position to be relative to its parent position.
btnObject.transform.localPosition = pos;
Annoyingly, that doesn't seem to affect the behavior at all. It's possible I'm not setting something else up. If it helps, the "parent" has a bottom-left anchor point
