uGUI: Choose parent for anchors
Is there a way to choose another parent than the parent in the scene hierarchy as the anchored parent? I'm using NGUI right now and in NGUI you can choose a parent for each anchor. That's one of the few advantages in NGUI over uGUI. (Btw I know I could do that in a script, but I would like to be able to do that in the editor).
If that's not possible right now, is it planned to be in the release version?
Thanks in advance!
In order to bump your question, use a comment ins$$anonymous$$d. You may also remove your comment right after the bump so that it does not make the comment list full.
Since your question is 5 days old a bump is ok, as opposed to people bumping every 30$$anonymous$$.
What do you mean by changing the parent? It is possible to move the UI element to be a child of another object as long as there is a canvas somewhere above in the hierarchy. I must be misunderstanding something.
