I have a UI element that I want to keep bottom right of my screen but of course also I want to slide it on/off screen at times using the tween behaviour.

It seems however that the tween and anchoring don't work well together: If anchoring is enabled the tween won't work (the object simply snaps into place) and if I disable/re-enable anchors after the tween there seems to be some jarring movement straight after the teen happens.

Is there a special way to go about this?

Thanks

You can do the anchoring with events instead. Say, if the object needs to be 100px above the bottom edge of the window, set its Y to ViewportBottom("HUD")-100 on every tick.

Okay Thanks. That seems like a good solution!
