Usage

There are 4 main components to this system:

• View Manager - a class that controls a list of views.
• View - a gameobject that represents a menu or a screen in the UI (Main Menu, Inventory, Shop etc.)
• View Component - animations and spesific behaviours that work for one view.
• Channel - a scriptable object that is tied to a view. Used to call Show() an any view from anywhere in the game.

The view are shown and hidden when the corresponding channels send an event. The ViewManager itslef has a Back Channel, which will go back in the view stack as long as the Depth of the previous View is lower that the current one.

You can add components to a game object by pressing Add Component/View Management.

Animations and Callbacks

• To add animations to you views, inherit from ViewAnimation or make use of the simple default animation component CascadeViewAnimation. You can also inport the animation samples that use DoTween to animate the elements.
• If you want custom logic for your views, inherit from ViewCallbacks.
