  • Type: Method
  • Namespace: UnityEngine
  • Assembly: UnityEngine.CoreModule
public void SetInsetAndSizeFromParentEdge(RectTransform.Edge edge, float inset, float size)

Parameters

edge

Edge
The edge of the parent rectangle to inset from.

inset

float
The inset distance.

size

float
The size of the rectangle along the same direction of the inset.

Remarks

Calling this method sets both the anchors, anchoredPosition, and sizeDelta, though only either the horizontal or vertical components, depending on which edge is specified for the inset.
The method can particularly be useful when scripting layout behaviours, since it makes it simple to specify positions relative to the parent edges without needing to be concerned with anchoring functionality.
