Question by ozarka30 · Jan 23, 2015 at 07:08 AM · uiunity 4interaction

Can't interact with Input Field

Hey there,

For some reason I can't interact with my Input Field, it just turns grey and can't interact with it. Interactable is checked.

I tried adding an Input Field into a blank project and can type in it and everything.

I think is has something to do with the fact that I used ray cast for shooting and determining the direction my character is facing.

The project I am working on is modifying this project: http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/projects/survival-shooter

Thanks for the help!!

Did you set the Font of the Text Component(s)?

Is there an EventSystem on the scene? It is always good to check!

Loaded up a project that had a canvas but no interactible pieces until I got my hands on it and this was exactly the problem. Thanks for the re$$anonymous$$der - since it is normally added automatically you rarely think about it

Hey,

I had the same problem... My fault was that my font-size was too big. I had "Placeholder" font-size 14 and "Text" font-size 16, so the text wasn't displayed when i wrote in. Perhaps i could help, good luck!

Same thing happened here, EventSystem was missing. Just created a new canvas object, then EventSystem automatically appeared.

I had the same problem, in my case there was an image in front of the InputField which had RayCast Target enabled. Disabling that made it work again
