TextMesh Pro How to display TextMesh Pro in a prefab clone behind the sprite and TMP of another clone?

Hi, I have some prefab which is a game object contains sprite and some other components and a child of this object is TextMeshPro (not in UI).

My problem is when instantiating multiple clones of this prefab, the text of the a clone is displayed on top of other sprites, which its parent (the sprite is displayed behind) . IN short, the texts are always on top and the sprites are always on back. I don't want that. I need the sprites and thier texts to be consistent either on top or back of other clones.

The clones will be spawned randomly in any number and any position. I can think of ugly solution for this by managing the ordering in code with every instantiate, but this is going to decrease the performane a little bit as we expect many objects to be instantiated and destroyed with every frame.

This is what happends:


I want it to be like this:


Suggestions please.

 

ik this is a year late but this worked for me add a sprite renderer and change the layer to 2 or anything higher than the clone 2
