    NOTE: this problem is solved.

    I ran into this issue while doing the Roll-A-Ball tutorial. I can't get text to appear anywhere on screen.

    I'm using Unity 5.0.0f4 Personal and trying to use "Add Component > UI > Text" putting the text on the camera object. No matter how I align the text, change the color, or change the font size I can't see any text on the screen.

    I would appreciate any help, thanks in advance.

    EDIT: I eventually found this video which explains the issue I was having:

    @BoredMormon put together a handy wee vid to cover the new UI workaround for the text in this, you can find it here...
