UI Toolkit Navigation Wizard

Links: Manual | Support

You have made your game and now you want to add controller support and you realize: Oh No, the selection gets stuck or selects the wrong stuff (elements in the back, out of screen, ..). -> Fear not for the UI Toolkit Navigation Wizard has arrived to solve all your UI navigation problems with the flick of a mouse.

😎 Easy to use

No coding skills required. Simply install the asset and call it a day (no setup needed).

✔️ Automated Controller & Keyboard Support

Your UI was designed for mouse or touch and now you need to add controller and keyboard support? No problem! The wizard automatically knows of your UI.

✔️ Occlusion Detection

Prohibits invisible elements or stuff in the back from being selected. You don't need to do anything. Yes, this also work for moving, dynamic UIs and supports scrollviews and overflow:hidden. Yes, it also works across multiple panels and panel settings (world- and screen-space panels).

✔️ Null Selection Resolution

It checks if nothing is selected and automatically selects the UI element that is closest to the position of the last selected element. HINT: By default it does so only if a keyboard or controller was used last because for mouse or touch inputs it would be annoying. You can of course configure this in the settings and pause/unpause the navigation wizard at any time (for cutscenes, tutorials, ...).

✔️ Mix automatic and explicit navigation

You choose whether you want to trust the automatic navigation or control it yourself. Easy per-element configuration for each navigation direction. Check out the manual for more details (you can control this via USS classes or code).

✔️ World and Screen Space panels supported

Supports both world and screen space panels.

✔️ No setup needed

The wizard automatically knows of all your UI panels. It's like magic (high performance, zero allocation magic) ;-)

✔️ Selection Constraints

Constrain the selectable buttons to just a few. Very handy for tutorials!

Check out the manual for more details (you can controls this via USS classes or code).

✔️ Dynamic UI support

All features handle UIs that activate and deactivate at runtime gracefully. No need to inform the wizard. He just knows.
