How do I focus on a button after scene is loaded

Hi Everyone,

I’m making a game that is supposed to be for console, so there won’t be any mouse/touch input.

I made a scene to pause the game and a pause menu appears. But as the new scene comes to life the first button of the menu is not the currently highlighted button nor the arrow keys are doing anything…

Anyone knows how to solve this?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide me

I added this script in a start function on a script… but I’m pretty sure it’s not the best option…

EventSystem.current.SetSelectedGameObject (this.transform.Find ("PauseMenuBtns/Continue").gameObject);

If anyone can come up witha better solution. I’m all ears…
