SetActive and activeSelf not working

Unity Engine
1

Since Unity changed .active I use .activeSelf in GUI button.
First I tried GameObject.SetActive(!GameObject.activeSelf);
It active my object from false to true. But when I press it the second time the object stays true. ! seems not working.
So I tried

if (GameObject.activeSelf){
			GameObject.SetActive(false);
			Debug.Log("t"+GameObject.activeSelf);
		}
		else  {
			GameObject.SetActive(true);
			Debug.Log("f"+GameObject.activeSelf);
		}

It now always give me “fTrue”. the object can never change to deactive again. the IF statement is even not working correctly.
I’ve tried GameObject.SetActive(false); it works fine.

GameObject is a type… make sure you are using a reference

Hi James, sorry my gameobject has a long weird name. so I replaced it and use GameObject to not confuse people.

other than that, do you have any idea of the SetActive function?

4

What are you trying to do? Turn it on and off?

5

right. just make a button to switch it on and off.

6

it was all right when i used SetActiveRecursively in unity3.5. But in unity4 just messed up.

A GUITexture?

8

kind of. Its actually a function I defined. Then I made a GUI button to call this function.

Not sure what you have going on, but I have been using “enabled”.

Hi guys, I just did a test. the function it self was fine. Everything are actually using a metaio AR plugin. That is messing up with all my objects activity. Working on other tests now.
