Prevent screentoworldpoint to execute while clicking on UI object

I'm creating a point adventure game in which the character can move through the use of screenToWorldPoint.
However, I also put an UI object (such as pause button) on the same screen. The issue persist when I clicked on the UI object, the character also moves to the position where I clicked on the UI.
I want to prevent the gameObject while I'm only clicking the UI object. Is there any other way to achieve this?

 

Post the code you're using to move your character based on the click. If you know you're hitting a UI element, you shouldn't even be telling the character to try to move!

 

Well, I'm betting there's more than 'screenToWorldPoint'... I'm assuming you're calculating this value on some event. May it be in Update you check for mouse down, or by implementing the 'OnMouseDown' message, or something. Where as the UI is probably on some other types of events, may it again be the 'OnMouseDown', or using the EventSystem events, or something else.

Your problem is that both events are occurring at the same time.

With out knowing how you actually implemented it, it's hard for us to give you any direction as to how to block one from occurring when the other does.
