Guys, anybody do a shaky HUD, tell me what to do? I tried to make the HUD shake, but only the camera shakes, I used World Camera Shake and I don’t know any other way to make the HUD shake. I need the HUD to shake the character’s health when receiving damage, have ideas how to do it?

Yes, it has to be the animation in the widget.

1. Press green [+Animation] button.
2. Select the NewAnimation and click green [+Track] button and select your main Canvas Panel (or the main parent object as you have it).
3. Now on the newly added track, press grey [+] and select Transform.
4. Open the Transform tree. You can delete the Keys for Rotation, Scale, and Shear. Open the Translation subtree.
5. Now you have two values: X and Y. Note that they do not represent location of the Canvas Panel — they indicate the offset of the panel relative to its initial position.
6. Set the keys as you wish to get what you want.
7. In the Graph, you will now have the Animation in your variables. Just drag it into the Graph and Play when needed.
