Question How do I prevent SetEnabled from changing the UI color?

    When using UIToolkit at runtime, I want to switch between operable and inoperable states without changing the appearance.
    I thought SetEnabled would be preferable, but the UI is grayed out when disabled.
    I want to prevent the UI from accepting operations during fade-in.

    I apologize if my style of writing is impolite, as I used an automatic translation for the post.

    Have you tried using readonly instead?

    This is the first time I have heard of such a function.
    I am sorry, but could you please tell me where I can operate it from?
    I tried searching the Scripting API and looking in the UI Builder section, but I couldn't find it.

    I'm not sure which elements you're using, but for a TextField for example, you'll find "Readonly" in the Inspector section of the UI Builder

    For elements that don't have the "Readonly" property though, you can adjust the style even in disabled style to not show as grayed out. By clicking the text box next to the "+" button on the StyleSheets section of the UI Builder you can see some information about complex selectors, and also on our documentation page.

    I want to fade out the entire UI with an empty Visual Elment created in the root, so readonly does not seem to work.
    I will try the style adjustments you described.
    Thank you for your explanation.
