Chapter 2. Creating Widgets

In this chapter, we will create our first sprite widget and understand how it works. Then we will create one sample of each important widget template, and analyze their corresponding parameters so that you know how to create and configure them.

At the end of this chapter, we will have a functional main menu with most of NGUI's widgets.
