Question by GarinR · Feb 19, 2016 at 02:52 AM · controllernavigationeventsystem

Buttons Selected Color is not active when said button is set as selected via SetSelectedGameObject

Hello!

So in my game i'm setting the default selected button in my menus via the "SetSelectedGameObject" call. Now, it does as it says and sets the gameobject as selected. So when I begin to move my controller stick/dpad it navigates correctly. However, when I call this the button doesn't change to it's "Selected" color that I've defined in the inspector. Of course, I'm able to say, move down to the next option, than back up to that same button and THEN the color changes. But it's just annoying having the user see no default selected button when they bring up the menu.

Other than changing the color of the object manually, by changing the color to it's selected color. Anyone got any other better ideas? Surely something better than that...That sounds so cumbersome.

Thanks!

UPDATE

For this project we ended up having to write a custom script using the I$$anonymous$$oveHandler, ISelectHandler, and ISubmitHandler interfaces. A hacky way that we define the default selected game objects for each menu in the inspector.

Basically, there's a check on every move and select to see if they match and then we manipulate the colors.

Very, very frustrating but it works..

I have the same problem, in addition to this, any inheriting OnSelect is not called either.

For me it works fine if the button is in the scene, but breaks if the button was instantiated runtime.
