Radial fill

How does one go about making radial fill?

I wanna do something like what I have here but using nova

Unfortunately, there is not currently a way to do a radial fill natively with Nova. I can change this to a feature request if you would like to see that added?

That being said, for simpler cases you may be able to unblock yourself in the meantime by mixing Nova content with custom content (rendered via a Mesh Renderer or using the standard canvas components such as Image, Raw Image, etc) as you can see in the following video where I added a radially filled circle to our Inventory Sample:

This isn't a perfect solution as the non-Nova content won't have the Nova effects applied to it (like ClipMask) and, depending on your setup, may require some additional configuration to get things to render in the order you want (for example, in the video above I had to set the canvas Order In Layer property to 1), but for simple use cases this solution may be enough.

I think as a UI replacement system it’s a rather useful thing to have, so yes please do change it to a feature request. Thank you for taking the time to get back to me.
