TextMesh Pro GUI with Playmaker
« on: May 14, 2020, 03:57:32 AM »
Hi All,

There is a TextMesh Pro action package on the Ecosystem, but the actions in it only work with TextMesh Pro texts created under
3D Objects -> Text - TextMesh Pro

If I create a TextMesh Pro object under
UI -> Text - TextMesh Pro
the TextMesh Pro actions doesn't work. If I set a "Set Textmesh Pro Text" action for example, it gives the following error message:
GameObject requires TMPro.TextMeshPro Component!

The two TextMesh Pro objects are different, and the one created under UI contains a TextMeshProGUI component.

Are there any playmaker actions that can edit TextMeshProGUI components too?

Thanks!

Thanks a lot ch1ky3n!

The UGUI actions should be added to the Ecosystem too!

Hi @04401

I have right now the same problem, how did you solve this in the end? I don't see anything in that other thread.

Edit:
so I didn't realize that there are two sets of actions, one for the TextMeshPro components added to a gameobject and another one for TextMeshPro components on UI objects. Seems there's only the first one available in the Ecosystem but the one for the UIs is NOT.

If anyone else is having this issue, go to https://github.com/dumbgamedev/TextMeshPro_Playmaker and download the uGui actions, those will work. :)

Hey all,

Have these UGUI actions been added to the ECO System yet as I can't find these still and the Github file isn't working properly for me when I try to drag it into the project.

Thanks

Hi.
Ugui actions are deprecated, but i believe you can get the package here :
