    Hi,

    I created a UI, decided on a font and imported it into Unity, followed the lessons and tutorials from all my searching that said I need to generate a font asset to use it.

    For some reason I cannot select the generated font asset in the UIToolkit Inspector. Anyone have any idea what the problem might be?

    I have added a screenshot of the FontAsset and empty selection box, not sure if that will be of any help.

    Thank you.

    Hi macdevelops,

    You have to create a Font Asset and not a TMP Font Asset, after having imported the font (.ttf) in the asset browser, you can right-click on the imported font, select Create -> Text -> Font Asset (outlined in red below).

    The font will then be available:
