GPU Instancing for 2D sprites and UI elements

Hello, I am new to profiling. I want to know if there is a way to make a lot of objects of the same type but sprites and ui elements to draw on one draw mesh callback exactly how the GPU instancing option makes it for 3d meshes.

 

Use dynamic batching for sprites. Any sprite less than 300 vertices will be batched;
As for the UI - investigate what's breaking the batching.
Make sure you're using sprite atlas and all UI / sprite resources are in it. (see Frame Debugger)

Instancing is usually slower than dynamic batching and you don't want it to be enabled for them at all.
Unless for specific cases that are affected by material parameter changes etc.

 

And put all sprites in a spritesheet.
But note that UI and regular sprites will be on different draw calls. I don't think they can ever batch together even if you use the same sprites/textures.

 

Thank you,Is it a problem that I add them with Instantiate method?

 

It does not matter.
