How is "Get EVent Info" supposed to work?

Ok, it sounds nice.. but in reality, all the drop downs can only accept a variable, or the field 'none' - how is it supposed to work - in reality - when it's not possible to select anything?!?

The action lets you access event data set by Set Event Data before the event was sent:

If you want to know who sent the event, store "Sent By GameObject" in a GameObject variable.

Does that make sense?

Nope!

But anyway, I was looking for somehow to tap into the events send by NGUI that is not supported by PlayMaker (NGUI:OnDragOver) - and this is not how to do that then!

Not sure how else to explain it.

Set Event Data sets data before sending an event.
Get Event Info gets that event data (and other info, like who sent the event).

Maybe if you describe how you were expecting it to work...?

Hi,

 Ngui event system and PlayMaker event are totally different, and you'll need to write a bridge between both to communicate, typically, you should inspire from the bridge provided on the playmaker wiki, this is likely the path to take ( the path I will take when I'll tackle it at least).

 Bye,
