Changing a sprite in image canvas VIA C# script

Unity Engine
1

A quick question, if I want to change the source image of an “Image” component through a script, how would I go about that? I am trying to access the source image property but I can’t figure out how.

I think the easiest method would be to declare public variables and input your image and sprite directly into the inspector:

public Image imageToChange;
public Sprite newImage;

Then when you want to change it:

imageToChange.sprite = newImage;

edit: don’t forget to include the namespace of course :slight_smile:

using UnityEngine.UI;
