Like the question describes I want to fade out/in all UI-Elements belonging to a parent canvas.

So things I got are :

  • A World-Canvas which contains multiple UI-Items
  • A script which can fade one color depending how close my cursor comes to that item

Things I want :

  • A script which can fade my whole canvas without attaching each single Element with a color property to it

Thoughts :

  • This would most likely work with a script which searches all Text children and Image children of the canvas, but I think that would be rather poorly performing code

I'm totally fine if there is no better solution as the mentioned one, but I would be annoyed if I implement it that way and there is a simple trick I don't know about :)

I think you can simply use a Canvas Group component on the top level canvas. It has an Alpha property that you can easily modify with a script.
