#PlayerUI.SetImageInside() #Not Working - Method 2
PlayerUI.MaterialBlockToUse.SetImage(SpinIconMaterial) # Working
- Create Material In Class (use your own material)
- Create material_block (To be referenced later)
- After Creating UI. Call SetImage on previously created material block with the parameters of your material.
Code Stated Above - SetImage on a material block will result in a white sprite if you are trying to set a material that has been created inside of a class. If the material is created inside of a device, it will display correctly. This is an issue only when trying to use SetImage, having the material defaulted inside of a class will work, but as the materials aren’t referenced for later use, you will not be able to change their parameters (eg, can’t increment a progress bar).
Expected Result
The working method would be SetImage resulting in the material showing from inside of a class.
Observed Result
Materials are showing as white sprites.
