I’ve read and watched many videos explaining world and local space but can’t wrap my head around how to do the following:
I have a image: 600x1008
My canvas scalar is: 3840x2160
My Game display is an iPhone XS Max: 2688x1242
Goal: I’d like to record the location of the touch on the actual image component and then translate it to the original location on the image to be displayed on the web. Thoughts?
Unity has a function that will pretty much do all the work for you:
You just need to pass it your camera (or null if you’re using screen space - Overlay), the RectTransform of the image, and the point the user touched on the screen. It will give you back the point in the image’s local space (as an out parameter). I think the point comes out in normalized coordinates (0 to 1), so you just have to multiply that point by the resolution of the image (on an axis by axis basis) if you want pixel coordinates.
