    Are child objects of a parent which has Ignore Layout set to true, still suppose to be getting the callbacks on CalculateLayoutInputHorizontal() & CalculateLayoutInputVertical()?

    They are currently getting those callbacks which seems wrong given the parent is set to ignore layout.

    Is the working as intended or a bug? If working as intended, can we get some insight on this behavior?

    Hi, back from vacation.

    I'd say in general I would not expect any UI elements in a sub-hierarchy of an element set to ignore layout to get layout callbaks, unless any element in that sub-hierarchy itself has layout components on it, such as LayoutGroups, ContextSizeFitter, AspectRatioFitter or similar. If they do, then this forms their own little sub auto-layout hierarchy with its own calculations, but which is still ignored by the parent auto-layout hierarchy (and not affecting it).

    I'd need more details about the specific setup to be able to determine if there's a bug or if things are working as intended.
