[Unity] Unable to select sprite in editor when flipped

Yonsh

Sprite becomes unselectable in editor when skeleton is flipped, it's fine if I just change the ScaleX or Y of GameObject to -1, but it causes additional Draw Calls.

Note: 2D Toolkit also had this problem before.

Confirmed. I think it's because the quad normals are pointing the other way. Not sure how it could be fixed (without breaking performance).

hippocoder?

As a workaround, you can still select it by dragging a selection box around it. Make sure the whole sprite is inside the box. You might be accidentally selecting other things in the process though.

I just fixed it by using Gizmos in Unity, and sent a pull request:
https://github.com/EsotericSoftware/spi ... es/pull/66

All the code I added are "Unity Editor Only", so it won't cause any performance drop in game. 🙂

Cool. Works fine. I think you could encapsulate it a bit more so it doesn't insert itself in several places in Nate's code. (for maintainability purposes)

I commented on your pull request with a link to my recommended encapsulation: https://gist.github.com/pharan/42bf342c3af2cb037fbd

Thanks.

Actually I was thinking that Nate would clean up the code himself :devil: , and then I continued working on my game. :rofl:
