Image.rectTransform Y Adding Random Values

[Kurt-Dekker]

Manipulating RectTransforms is hairy.

The things you THINK you are manipulating are often just properties that feed into a bunch of interim math based on anchoring and scaling and relationships to other objects, and then finally they set the real position.

To do what you want I suggest this approach:

• make empty GameObjects where you 1) want the canvas to start, 2) want the canvas to end up
• drag references to those RectTransforms into your script
• use a tweener or Lerp() to move between the two positions.

That way you can have a chance of getting the anchoring right and getting it to work on all shapes of screens.

Here are some more notes on UI Anchoring, Scaling, CanvasScaler, etc:

Inconsistent game object placement/size between two people

It can be very fiddly but it is super-powerful once you reach comfort with the UI. Building upon Praetor’s great post above, let me suggest this approach: make a quick first draft of your UI. in the Unity game window change the shape / dimensions of your Game window (you can even make your own resolutions) see what happens to your UI in this new shape window iterate and fix your anchors and scalings and whatnot Make sure you do not overlook the Canvas Scaler settings. Personally I (almost) …

SOLVED: Game UI Button Size problem

That seems excessive… What is the text of the actual complaint from them? Make something like this with a fixed aspect ratio (in this case 2:1, maybe you need 3:1 or whatever suits your buttons), and ALL your buttons anchored inside it to never move within that box: [7337383--891847--fixed_aspect_ratio_box.png] then anchor that fixed against the bottom center (red dot below). On the ipad it looks like: [7337383--891850--ipad.png] on the iPhone it looks like: [7337383--891853--iphonex.pn…
