    I need to use light on my scenes and I was playing a little bit to discover which was the best light to use on my game when I realised that I could not use light on my UI objects like images and buttons, at least not in a proper way. In pointlight it seems that the light just don't work it and with the direactional light the image gets all weird, darker that the rest of the scene and I don't why. I'm using the Material Legacy Shaders/Transparent/Diffuse and my Canvas is set to screen space - camera. Any tips of how to solve this?

    Try using UI > Lit shader and see if that fixes your issue. We cannot guarantee that Legacy shaders will work in all scenarios, especially with the newer versions of Unity.
