Since the move to UPM, the team have been able to react quicker and push out fixes a lot easier, without affecting previous installation (whilst still adhering to Unity's backwards compatibility pattern). So it is with great news we announce this new release, faster that ever :D (and thanks to UPM, easier to upgrade than ever).
Be sure to also check out the "Examples" option in the Package Manager window to import the samples to your project.

Due to the restructure of the package to meet Unity's new package guidelines, we recommend **Deleting the current Unity UI Extensions** folder prior to importing the new package.
For Unity 2019 users using the new UPM deployment, be sure to delete the existing folder in your assets folder before adding the new package to avoid conflict.
The recommended way to add the Unity UI Extensions project to your solution is to use the Unity package Manager. Simply use the [Unity Package Manager](https://bitbucket.org/UnityUIExtensions/unity-ui-extensions/wiki/UPMInstallation) to reference the project and install it.
Alternatively, you can also use the pre-compiled Unity packages if you wish, however, UPM offers full versioning support to allow you to switch versions as you wish.
- Unity 2018 or lower
The pre-compiled Unity assets are the only solution for Unity 2018 or earlier due to the changes in the Unity UI framework in Unity made for 2019.
Either clone / download this repository to your machine and then copy the scripts in, or use the pre-packaged .UnityPackage for your version of Unity and import it as a custom package in to your project.
All scripts conform to the BSD3 license and are free to use / distribute. See the [LICENSE](https://bitbucket.org/UnityUIExtensions/unity-ui-extensions/wiki/License) file for more information =
As this repo was created to support my new Unity UI Title ["Unity 3D UI Essentials"](http://bit.ly/Unity3DUIEssentials), in the downloads section you will find two custom assets (SpaceShip-DemoScene-Start.unitypackage and RollABallSample-Start.unitypackage). These are just here as starter scenes for doing UI tasks in the book.
Please see the [full downloads list](https://bitbucket.org/UnityUIExtensions/unity-ui-extensions/wiki/Downloads) for all previous releases and their corresponding download links.
