Cut TMP out of Image

I am trying to cut a TMP component out of an UI Image, to make the stuff behind that visible. I already got a custom Masking script for cutting images out of other images, so if you have an idea how to cast an TMP component to an image while runtime, that would also be great.
This is my first time posting, and i am sorry if this post is in the wrong section.

 

Try this one:
https://github.com/mob-sakai/UnmaskForUGUI

Also, from the same developer:
https://github.com/mob-sakai/SoftMaskForUGUI
But not sure if it works with TMP

 

Thank you a lot , but i just cant seem to get it up and running (company managed PC problem)

 

You mean you can't install it as a package?

If so, why don't you try downloading it directly from the git and placing it manually in your assets? You only need the Scripts folder and eventually Samples (talking about the unmask plugin).

 

I eventually got it installed but not to work correctly with TMP. I got a workaround by masking a normal text with the soft mask and then added a custom spacing script to imitate the functionality of TMP.
It actually states, it would work with it, but i only got it to show an orange outline of the text.
