We are trying to programatically generate and set the Unity SplashScreen for Android and iOS.
The code below works when called from Unity [MenuItem("VoodooSauce/TEST")] but doesn't work when called from IPreprocessBuildWithReport-OnPreprocessBuild or RegisterBuildPlayerHandler ...
PlayerSettings.SplashScreen.logos = new[] {PlayerSettings.SplashScreenLogo.Create(3f, splashScreenSprite)};
We dynamically generate the "splashScreenSprite" and can successfully save it as a PNG.
We can even reload this PNG file as a Sprite.
However, regardless of what we do, the SplashScreen.logos code does not work ...
Strangely, regardless of where we call our code, it always updates the other fields in PlayerSettings.SplashScreen such as BackgroundColor, etc.

How to identify quick way the Assets added inside Assets.xcassets for Images & color are using inside project or not.
Example:
int value = 10
In this case int value not used inside application which give an warning.
Initialization of immutable value 'value' was never used; consider replacing with assignment to '_' or removing it
What if inside Assets.xcassets added color or image are not used how to identify ?
Xcode has no tool which could highlight not used assets but there is a open source project called "AssetsChecker" which will do the job.
There's no way a tool can know which assets are not being used by your application.
Imagine that you are creating a Weather app, and the data you receive from the server includes the image_key that you use to know which asset to load.
If a tool to find unused assets was used, it would tell you that every image or color that is not referenced directly is not used, which would yield a LOT of false positives.
Hey everyone so I read that unity doesn't really support mobile browsers for WebGL games. im using 2020.1.4.And sure enough, the game gets a bit distorted by not being scaled properly. it's like the camera is bigger so it shows on the screen that blue color. I tried some things, setting width and height to auto or removing config.devicePixelRatio = 1; as suggested by a friend but nope! still looks horrible! And if that wasn't enough the keyboard doesn't show up when clicking on form fields. i tried this one
https://github.com/eforerog/keyboardMobileWebGLUnity
which displayed an error when pressed on and this one
https://github.com/dantasulisses/WebMobileInputFix which just didn't even compile!
Any ideas, please?
I did my research and tried every plugin I could find. I used Unity 2020.3.28f1 and tested both on Android-phone and iPhone.Here is my report.
These plugins don't work:
https://unitylist.com/p/f58/Unity-webgl-inputfield
https://github.com/eforerog/keyboardMobileWebGLUnity
https://github.com/dantasulisses/WebMobileInputFix
This plugin works, but you should use different settings for IOS and Android on same input field game object. If you use "prompt", it works for IOS only, and "overlay" works for Android only. Look for documentation in page:
https://github.com/unity3d-jp/WebGLNativeInputField
And this plugin works best at the moment. Yes, it is a bit ugly though, but it works.

And there is a fix for Unity 2021 for it:

There's a keyboard that overlays, when using it you just need to tap the notification to access it and then click the "back" button to hide it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fishstix.gameboard
I made this project that simply recreates a keyboard using buttons in unity.
I implemented it in a WebGL build successfully.

I would recommend using the native js window.prompt() fields as of writing. They have great cross-platform support, allow for extra features like special characters, emojis, copy and paste etc. and are pretty easy to set up. Once (or honestly if ever) Unity adds their own reliable implementation you can easily remove this lightweight implementation.
Create a .jslib file that has a function opening a window.prompt(description, currentText)
Return the result at the end of that function back to a unity object with a recipient script
Make a derivation from Unity's event system overwriting the OnApplicationFocus(bool focus) function (leaving it empty), to fix a sneaky Chrome Android bug.
That's it. The result should look something like in this demo: https://pop.demo.neoludic.games
If you want to save some development time on a feature that really should just be native in Unity, you can also check out my plugin based on the method above. https://neoludic-games.itch.io/pop-input
I also need to enable mobile virtual keyboard for running webgl on mobile device.
I've tried the code from your mentioned url. It gives you some idea on how to do
it, but the code are totally buggy and unusable. Now I am trying to implement it
by myself.
Hi I would like to make small modifications to an existing plugin (Nativescript-BitmapFactory) because rotating in ios rotates the image out of view. I modified the code in the mode_modules\nativescript-BitmapFactory directory but when i run to ios the original file gets pulled from "https://registry.npmjs.org... Please advise.
I changed the rotate-function in the BitmapFactory plugin and this works perfectly !!!! alse the resize plugin was altered.
The rotate function in the NativeScript-Bitmapfactory does not work for me. So i put the bitmap-factory plugin in my project and changed the require statements to include the correct path... works like a dream !
I'm developing an hybrid app on MobileFirst 7.1, with Ionic libraries.
In a .js file I globally define
var busyIndicator = new WL.BusyIndicator ("content", {text: "DUMMY TEXT"});
but when I call for it to show, i.e.
busyIndicator.show();
I always get the same message, ignoring the text I put in the text field:
Image link here
I'm testing this on Android devices (Huawei P7 Ascend, Samsung Galaxy J5, both with Android 5.1). On the Android Mobile Simulator the message displays just fine.
p.s. "content" matches my html id, I tried putting null instead of "content" but to no avail.
A workaround
define in some common .js file
function showMyIndicator() {
busyIndicator.__options.text="Custom loading text";
busyIndicator.show();
}
and call showMyIndicator() each time you would call busyIndicator.show().
busyIndicator.hide() can be called normally (although you might want to define some 'hideMyIndicator()' function for homogeneity).
What is happening?
It appears that, as soon as I load (jQuery $.load() ) some new content in order to change page, the text fileld of the busyIndicator object defaults to "[(')ههههههه Loading]", which is defined in every native project inside messages.json.
That file is full of those weird signs, no idea about why.
Update
There's something corrupted in my project which causes those .json files to be generated with wrong characters, a freshly generated project didn't show the same issues so creating a new one and move the resources in there might do the trick.
I'm new to MonoTouch and iPhone development. I have my images (PNG) in a resources folder in MonoDevelop, however if I want to set the image property for a button in Interface Builder, how do I do that? It's always a blank dropdown. Do I need to use XCode to access the XIB file and then somehow embed the button image file I'll need in it?
This is a known limitation of MonoDevelop and Interface Builder. To add images to an XIB in Interface Builder they must be part of an XCode project, which of course coming from MonoDevelop they're not.
To achieve what you're trying to do you will need to set the image via code, and ensure the build action of your image is set to Content. To do this, simply right click your image inside MonoDevelop, and select Build Action > Content.
On your view with the button on it, create an outlet in Interface Builder for your button, hook it up, then from code to set your image, you just need to use the .FromFile("path/name") method of UIImage.
UIImage buttonImage = UIImage.FromFile ("resources/image.png");
myButton.SetBackgroundImage (buttonImage,UIControlState.Normal);
That's off the top of my head, but I think that should do it.
You can manually set the image in Interface Builder, but it wont show up until run time. The image name can include a path, e.g. "images/settings.png".
All solutions given here are completely wrong and misleading. All you need to do, is place your images in the Resources folder (on the project root), and add your images to this folder. After adding files to this folder, mark all files and make sure their build action is set to BundleResource.
I also needed this to work, here is a workaround I found.
You need to create a dummy xcode project. Place it in the same folder as your project.
Add all your xib files and image files to that xcode project by dragging them in when the project is opened in xcode. Now you will be able to see the preview of the images.
The image files must be in the same folder as the project file and xcode must be opened with the dummy project while the interface builder is opened.
Not great - but solves the issue for now.
Here is a sample project I have created.
For this issue to be resolved on the MonoDevelop side - some inter-process communication code needs to be created, I think that a good starting point will be looking for "PBXProjectWatcherServerConnection-3.1.2" in google.
