[SOLVED] Set textmesh pro UGUI text?
« on: April 05, 2020, 12:12:19 AM »
I'm trying to use the textmesh pro package to manage my UI but it seems the "set textmesh pro text" action only works for normal textmesh objects and not the UGUI variety. The trouble is that I need to use the UGUI textmesh object in order to have the text render on top of my other UI components (the normal version always renders beneath). What would be the best way to approach this?

Thanks! This was a bit tricky to set up but solves my issue.

What did you see? What did you learn?

I've been through the other thread and all I can understand is that there appears to be no solution for this -- other than not having UI in your game  ::) -- but you seem to have solved it?
