[Solved] Bark UI -> Set Order in Layer for each NPC.

[Japtor]

Hi,

Inside some NPCs, I have attached a Dialogue Actor Script -> Bark UI settings -> Bark UI -> Bubble Template Standard Bark UI prefab. Is there a way I could modify for each of them the Canvas-> Order in Layer number?

Thanks!

Hi,

There are two ways:

1. You can add an instance of the bark UI to each NPC, and assign the instance to the Dialogue Actor. The NPC's Dialogue Actor will use this instance instead of creating its own instance of the prefab. Set each instance's Canvas -> Order in Layer.

2. Or add a script to the NPC. In Start(), wait one frame for the Dialogue Actor to instantiate the prefab, and then set the DialogueActor's barkUISettings.barkUI's Order In Layer:

Code: Select all

IEnumerator Start() {
    yield return null;
    var barkCanvas = GetComponent<DialogueActor>().barkUISettings.barkUI.GetComponentInChildren<Canvas>();
    barkCanvas.sortingOrder = ###; // Some value.
}
