I am trying to use a gamepad with a scrollable list of GUI.Buttons and I am looking for a way to attivate a button in the list without having to use the mouse and clicking on the buttons. Any ideas? I’d be happy to clarify something if anyone needs more information.

Have the button trigger a function when clicked then you can call that function from elsewhere in the code.

function OnGUI(){

    if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,10,50,50),"button 1")){
       ButtonClicked(0);
    }

    if (GUI.Button(Rect(10,10,50,50),"button 2")){
       ButtonClicked(1);
    }

}

function ButtonClicked(id:int){

   if(id==0){
      //do button 1 stuff
   }

   if(id==1){
      //do button 2 stuff
   }
}

You can have the GUI.Button call a new function when clicked. Then its very easy to call this from other locations as well.

function Update(){
     if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Alpha1)){ //the user presses "1" on their keyboard
           DoMyThing();
}

function OnGUI(){
    if(GUI.Button(Rect(10,10,100,100),"Click Me Or Press 1")){
        DoMyThing();
    }
}

function DoMyThing(){
 //Do stuff
}

This could even be called from a different script altogether if you make it a static or a public function.
