Installing Unity UI Extensions

To install this package, follow the instructions in the Package Manager documentation.

For more details on Getting Started please checkout the online documentation here.

Using Unity UI Extensions

The UI Extensions project provides many automated functions to add the various controls contained within the project commonly accessed via "GameObject -> UI -> Extensions -> 'Control'" from the editor menu. This will add the UI object and all the necessary components to make that control work in the scene in a default state.

Some of the features are also available through the GameObject "Add Component" menu in the inspector.

For a full list of the controls and how they are used, please see the online documentation for the project.
