Title: how to click on text
Post by: 9TOFRIDAY on May 20, 2015, 09:31:05 AM

Hey peeps

i have a game where i mix up words and out put the value to text objects. can i have direct interaction on them or must it be a fake button?

the problem is that i want the touch to happen immediately not when the button is released.

Hi,

 the uGui package from PlayMaker has a proxy for raw pointers, it works on ALL UI components.

1: drop the "PlayMaker  Ugui" prefab in the scene
2: drop the "PlayMakerUGuiPointerEventsProxy" onto the Text GameObject
3: have an fsm on the text GameObject wich implements the event "UGUI / ON POINTER DOWN" ( you'll see the proxy warning if it did not find implementations)

and then you'll get that event sent everytime the use mouse down ( or touch ) the text

Tell me if you have problem implementing this, I'll do a sample if necessary. but before that, make sure you go over all the existing samples available on the Ecosystem (https://hutonggames.fogbugz.com/default.asp?W1181), they use this proxy ( on the drag sample (https://twitter.com/JeanAtPlayMaker/status/585083557451796480) for sure).

Bye,
