Question by Vasir_ · Sep 16, 2014 at 06:57 PM · uibutton4.6

[4.6 UI] Button onSelect

I feel like I'm overlooking something really obvious, but I'm instantiating buttons at runtime, how do I use their onSelect function in a script?

Given how new the system is, I'm surprised I found nothing on google except for this: I have placed the function

 public void OnSelect(BaseEventData eventData)
     {
         Debug.Log("test");
     }



in both my UIManager script, and a script attached to the button's gameobject. It isn't being called. All I want to do right now is log text when the button goes to the state selected.

 Thanks!
