[Solved][WebPlayer] Opening new tab using a button and focus issues

Hi there ^^

So here's my problem, i have a webplayer / webGL project, where i can open new tabs clicking on a button. But when i do, the button is stuck in "pressed mode" (unless i go back to my game tab and click anywhere on the screen), and when i click on the new tab opened, the tab keeps opening again, as if the button still is selected and intercept the mouse click.

So, i looked a bit in the UI Button documentation, but didn't find how to break the focus on the button, when i click on it so that i can avoid this issue.

Do you have any idea how to do this ?

Thank you for reading

 

Ok so i managed to fix this doing the following things:
- i added 2 functions in the php page hosting the game using jquery:

Code (CSharp):

1. $(window).focus(function()
2. {
3.     console.log("we have focus");
4.  
5.     var unityObj = retrieveUnityObj();
6.  
7.     if(unityObj != undefined && unityObj != null)
8.     {
9.         //allow to open links
10.         retrieveUnityObj().SendMessage("AnswerSheetScreen", "AllowToOpenLink", "");
11.     }
12. });
13.  
14. $(window).blur(function()
15. {
16.     console.log("WE LOST FOCUS");
17.  
18.     var unityObj = retrieveUnityObj();
19.  
20.     if(unityObj != undefined && unityObj != null)
21.     {
22.         //block links
23.         retrieveUnityObj().SendMessage("AnswerSheetScreen", "BlockAnyLinkOpening", "");
24.     }
25. });
26.    

So that i can detect when the players leaves the current tab, and when he goes back.
It solves the issue.

Also, to get the button out of the "selected state", i just used this to focus another object:

Code (CSharp):

1. EventSystem.current.SetSelectedGameObject(_uiText.gameObject);
