[subtle hazel]

oh okay

[left comet]

we’ll do one at a time

[subtle hazel]

okay

Im trying to get the table transform

[left comet]

let’s do rowsParent first. What type is it?

[subtle hazel]

are you able to hop in a call and i can better explain this?

[left comet]

i’m unable to

[subtle hazel]

okay. Ill try to my best to descibe it then

rowsParent is a rect transform

would it be easier to bring the whole UI and game object in from the Start scene? It does work in there. Its just I made a copy of the game object and put it in the Home Scene and now it doesnt work

You can see I am not in play mode there and all the values are there. they just disappear when i switch scenes. I am wondering if it would be esaiser to bring in the whole PANEL- Leaderboard

[left comet]

i have to go soon, so i can’t help completely

[left comet]

anyways my way of doing it would be to:
have rect transform access the variable off of UserProfile and then assign itself

void Start()
{
      UserProfile profile = UserProfile.UP;
       profile.rowsParent = this;
}```

that’s what this is

In the start method the rect transform accesses the Static variable, and then assigns rows parent

[subtle hazel]

I tried that and i got that one error: cant convert UserProfile to Transform error

[left comet]

is UP a transform?

[subtle hazel]

no userprofile is the name of the script

[left comet]

which line is throwing the error

the top one or bottom one

[subtle hazel]

Profile.rowParent = this;

specificlly the word this

[left comet]

this void start should be on the rect transform game object

not the DDOL UserProfile game object

[subtle hazel]

im not sure what you mean

        UserProfile.instance.rowPrefab = rowPrefab;
        UserProfile.instance.rowsParent = rowsParent;
    }

[left comet]

Is there a rowsParent on every scene or just the first one?

[subtle hazel]

Like i said there I copied the whole leaderboard game object to the start scene just to see if it would work (which it does) but where I actually want is in the HOME scene but all the things like rowParent and Flowchart are destoryed becasue they arnt the same in the HOME Scene

[left comet]

actually, there’s one more experiment i want to try before adding any more code.
Can you group everything you want in the DDOL under one game object, then DDOL that one game object

[subtle hazel]

like in unity make a game objected called DDOL and then place UserProfile as a child in it?

[left comet]

sure, and the rect transforms and everything else as well

[subtle hazel]

Says that DDOL doesnt exsist in this context

[left comet]

you need to create a GameObject variable and drag it in

[left comet]

or actually just DontDestroyOnLoad(transform.root.gameObject); and remove the rest of the DontDestroyOnLoad calls

I’ve got to go now

[subtle hazel]

you avalible at all tomorrow?

[left comet]

if that doesn’t fix it, you’ll have to reask it in beginner, i’m closing the thread

[left comet]

no
