html formatted text with new unity ui

Hi All,

Is there any way to assign html formatted text to new unity Text component.
Rich Text has very limited support, but I want to support html tags like <p> <font> <br> etc.
Is it possible?
Is there any workaround?

 

There are no built in ways to do this, but there are a few assets on the store that can handle some of this. There are even a few directly for HTML, but I'm not sure there are any free ones.

 

I didn't find any workaround yet (even on asset store), if you have any ref link, can you please share?

Those were the two I had seen, but honestly, a closer look and they are a bit older, so they may not be supported anymore.

I have used hypertext asset to create style sheets, but I'm not sure if it will cover enough of what you need.

I guess the main question is, what are you trying to accomplish with support for html tags? That may help determine if there is a workaround for it.
