    Hey there.

    I'm having issues with my buttons and my TextMeshPro. It won't show up on the game screen. Additionally, unless I pair my buttons with my BackgroundCanvas, they disappear.

    What should I do?

    Thanks.

    I've tried changing the Canvas Scaler but it didn't bring the buttons back and made the background disappear.

    Don't "try changing" it... learn how it works. The canvas scaler and anchoring is almost certainly the issue here and if you just wiggle a few values and give up, you are unlikely to attain success. The links I posted above have examples of how to reason about what the anchoring and scaling should be to get what you want.
