Question Detect GetTouch or GetMouse on an UI Element

Hi, I am catching the GetTouch or GetMouse event and trying to check whether it happens on certain UI Elements.

The "clicked" method doesn't work because it needs also the MouseUp event.
I have tried working around using UIElement.clickable.lastMousePosition but the lastMousePosition would not change until I click the UI Element again. So even if there are clicks on other places after clicking the UI Element, the code stills think I am clicking on the UI Element.

This sounds like a simple task but I couldn't find the appropriate methods.

Thank you for any ideas.

 

Thanks! It works! For others who come across this post in the future, I followed the example in this page https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UIE-Pointer-Events.html but instead of evt.target I used evt.currentTarget so that the registered object can be identified even when the Pointer is on some child element of he registered object.
