    Hello,

    I'm trying to make a health bar and every tutorial says to UI -> Image. But I'm missing image types (I think) so I can change to a fill. Any ideas how to get it to show up?

    Apply a source image to the image component and the image type drop-down menu will become available.

    Duuuh! So simple! I ended up using a sprite and adjusting the X. Starting to get the hang of this without feeling lost all the time.

    Thank you for the help!

    So stupid how Unity constantly "hides" stuff on us. Just "disable" it, I expect to "see" settings in their proper place, whether or not I can change them yet.

    Talking about the right place; the above is UI related and not 2D features so posts regarding it should really be posted on the UI forum here.

    This forum is monitored by the 2D team not the UI team so any issues you have won't get noticed by them.

    Thanks.
