Analog for Unity UI CanvasGroup

[DMurzNN]

Hello!
In my projects, it is often necessary to fade/unfade complex ui menu or other element, for this I use CanvasGroup, however in Nova I have not found something like that.
It would be great if it were added in future versions.

You can achieve a similar fade effect with ClipMasks!

One limitation with that option today is the fade/tint won't be applied to descendant UIBlocks that are clipped further down the hierarchy (e.g. list items within a scroll view with its own clip mask won't fade when you try to fade the scroll view's parent menu). Fortunately support for nested fading will come with Nested Clipping, which is already actively in development!

Thank you very much for your help, my mistake that I did not see this in the documentation

No problem at all! Asking questions is precisely the reason for this discussions forum. We're here to help :)

I'm going to mark this as "feature added", since the core functionality is there and the nested functionality is attached to the nested clipping feature.

As a workaround - where I need to use multiple ClipMasks on child objects -I create a routine in which the child ones get their 'value' from the parent (if the parent has changed). That way if I want to fade the whole panel, I change the parent values and they are all cascaded down. It's a good workaround until this 'nested clipping' comes into effect.

Yeah, sounds great, thanks!
