Interactable Button Question

[jo_5]

When Gary demonstrates the Interactable button in the beginning of this lesson, the transparency of his buttons does not change in the scene after deactivating it.

However, I cannot reproduce the same result on my end. Is there a reason why the transparency changes with my buttons each answer is selected OR after changing Interactable in the unity UI?

Screenshots are attached below

AFTER ANSWER SELECTED DURING GAME:

I appreciate any insight or help on this!

Hi,

@jo_5

When Gary demonstrates the Interactable button in the beginning of this lesson, the transparency of his buttons does not change in the scene after deactivating it.

Interactable is not supposed to change the visualisation of the button. It just disables the functionality of the button meaning the user input will not work on the button anymore: no colour changes on mouse over, no button click.

The buttons look fairly pale as if a transparent layer is on top of them or as if the alpha channel of the tint is not set to 1 and 100% respectively. The latter is not caused by “Interactable” but by the defined Color values in the Button component.

Huzzah! That was it. The Alpha color was set about halfway under the “Disabled Color” component of the button. Thanks Nina!
