How do i change the clickable/hover area of the button without changing the source image size?

im trying to make my button hover/click area smaller but my source image also needs to look bigger

but if i tried to resize the button area my image will look very small and weird looking


thank you

 

Can you just put the image as a child of the button?

 

If you are having issues with the image scaling properly you can apply the aspect ratio fitter component to your image and that will keep it from getting all stretched out and weird: Aspect Ratio Fitter | Unity UI | 1.0.0 (unity3d.com)

 

I think that only works in the old UI system

 

Ah didn't realize where this thread was, thank you for catching that.

 

I do believe there is an answer to your question @hishamhazem1234 in this thread: https://forum.unity.com/threads/ui-builder-problems-with-scale-images.927032/

They talk about aspect ratio fitting using the new UI Toolkit. If that is what you are looking for.
