Question by SoshJam · Aug 10, 2018 at 04:06 PM · not workingclickinputfieldactivenot responding

Can't click on Input fields.

That's it. I click on the input field, and not$$anonymous$$ng happens. I can't input anyt$$anonymous$$ng, or delete stuff. The cursor t$$anonymous$$ng doesn't even appear. When I hover over it, it doesn't change color. A script makes it active/inactive frequently, so that might have somet$$anonymous$$ng to do with it, but I don't t$$anonymous$$nk so. I didn't do anyt$$anonymous$$ng weird, and not$$anonymous$$ng is blocking it. Interactive is checked. What's going on?

**Link to previous question, when only half of it was unresponsive:**

T$$anonymous$$s is the script that makes it active/inactive

creationGUI.SetActive(true); and creationGUI.SetActive(false); The input fields are wit$$anonymous$$n creationGUI. There are five input fields there, but only four have t$$anonymous$$s problem. The fifth works.

Okay somet$$anonymous$$ng was blocking it, I just didn't see it because it was the border of a text box that was too big. Way to go, me.

Maybe your scene is missing an EventSystem object. Add it under Hierarchy > create > UI > EventSystem (https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/EventSystems.EventSystem.html)


It's responsible handling Input events and you are therefore not able to click on components like buttons, inputfields etc. in the specific scene if it's missing.

It might be underneath another UI element and thus not clickable. Make sure there are no panels overlapping it on the canvas $$anonymous$$erarchy.
