TextMesh Pro Choosing the default source for sprites

The docs say this: To use a sprite asset, put it in a Resources / Sprites folder. This allows TextMesh Pro to find it. You can also configure one sprite asset as the default source for sprites.

How do I configure the sprite asset as the default source? It says you can, but it doesn't tell you how.

Thanks!

 

In the TMP Settings, you can assign a Sprite Asset which will then become the Default Sprite Asset.



As such when using <sprite=0> or <sprite index=0> or <sprite name="sprite name">, TMP will be looking for that sprite in this default sprite asset.

Please note that you can also assign fallbacks to sprite assets.

You can also assign sprite assets to a text object in the Extra Settings section of the text object inspector. When a sprite asset is assigned to a text object, using <sprite=0> will then get the sprite from this sprite asset.

 

Thank you.
