NGUI Sprite not visible in 3d when added by code
When i add them by hand its nice two-sided GO with sprites, but when i do this by code
GameObject squadUnit = new GameObject("squadUnit"+i);
UISprite uiSpr = squadUnit.AddComponent<UISprite>();
uiSpr.atlas = atlas;
uiSpr.spriteName = "frame2";
uiSpr.panel = uiPanel;
squadUnit.transform.parent = panel.transform;
UISpriteAnimation uiSprAnim = squadUnit.AddComponent<UISpriteAnimation>();
uiSprAnim.framesPerSecond = 8;
uiSprAnim.namePrefix = "frame";
I see a rectangles but animation frames not visible How to add them properly?
You're probably having parenting issues with your widgets and panel.
Instead of having to worry about parenting, let NGUI do it for you, use NGUITools.AddChild:
GameObject squadUnit = NGUITools.AddChild(uiPanel.gameObject, new GameObject("squadUnit"+i)); // this will create the object and parent it properly
UISprite uiSpr = squadUnit.AddComponent<UISprite>();
uiSpr.atlas = atlas;
uiSpr.spriteName = "frame2";
// uiSpr.panel = uiPanel; don't need that no more
// squadUnit.transform.parent = panel.transform; nor that
And btw, sometimes widgets don't appear even if you add them manually in-scene, if that happens just pull your panel a little bit forward. See this for more info as to why this happens (it's a Unity thing)
Not sure if i will have the chance to check this solution, as i have moved to 2dtoolkit for sprites. Still have the feeling this might be just the thing to get them going on NGUI. Thanks.
I $$anonymous$$gest you move back to NGUI 3.0 - As the new UnityGUI will be based on NGUI, that way your migration will be easy. See this.
It's probably not on the right layer to be rendered by the camera that is doing the NGUI stuff. That's normally what it is when it happens to me :)
