This was the most easy, precise, to the point tutorial!

[thedude]

Thanks, I've been looking for a short simple to the point video like this. This really helped! You didn't even give us an intro, you just got straight to the goods.

Thanks, I have been struggling with this for a while. I have now got it. I was adding the script only to the on_click selection on the button rather than the whole canvas. Nice easy explanation, well done

[phyzxengrmoore]

This works and has been done ad infinitum because there is no trying out of the simplistic boundaries. What needs to be addressed is the canvas order, button script enteries, and image entries. For you see when the click events are not in line with the button image is where the real headaches begin. Search that one and take your box of tissues with you. There are alot of bugs, problems, and failures. Any body can post stuff that works. The internet is filled with poetic regurgitation. Offer solutions to real world problems of development is where the real intelligence is. Any body can copy stuff that works. Not slamming here. Just regurgitating.

Why i dont have button on function select ?? i have all same like in video but dont have button to select

[kianheus]

Thanks so much for this tutorial. All the others didn't work in Unity 5

is the camera necessary? it blocks a part of the screen and makes some things confusing..

How would I go about making a controller accessible menu? Like using the joystick to navigate the menu buttons.

For one reason or another, my buttons seem to have stopped working. They're essentially the same as what you showed in the video, other than the fact that they change scene. When I hover over or click the buttons nothing happens, not even the click animation. First I thought it just didn't register my mouse. But after making a script which constantly writes the cursor's position, that can't be the case. Did something change in a recent update?
