How to make the button respond to touch and hold feature?

Hi o/ I'll help you because you're a cool budy.

Go to your button in the Hierarchy, and in the inspector go to "Add Component" -> Event Trigger -> "Add New Event Type" and there you go!

If I'm not mistaken, the event "PointerDown" is the one you want, it's like a "hold event".

The rest is just like OnClick() that you already know your way around it.

As I found no solution on the internet I finally came with one. To continuously shoot on Ui Button hold use this script.Add this script in ur Ui ShootButton.` using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.EventSystems;

 public class ShootHandler : MonoBehaviour,IUpdateSelectedHandler,IPointerDownHandler,IPointerUpHandler
 {
     public bool isPressed;
 
     // Start is called before the first frame update
     public void OnUpdateSelected(BaseEventData data)
     {
         if (isPressed)
         {
          Shoot();
         }
     }
     public void OnPointerDown(PointerEventData data)
     {
         isPressed = true;
     }
     public void OnPointerUp(PointerEventData data)
     {
         isPressed = false;
     }
 }
 

Set a bool to true on PointerDown, and false on PointerUp. Then in your Update function, check if the bool is true before your code executes

I'd use the inspector and add an EventTrigger component, then implement PointerDown. If you're unsure how, visit https://unity3d.com/learn .

I think I have a solution. Even my character behaved the same when I tried to move it with buttons, with the PointerDown Event added. I added another one called UpdateSelected. To do that, click "Add New Event Type", and click UpdateSelected. Do your thing by adding the necessary gameobject and panel and you're good to go. Hope it helps.
