    Trying to set the color of a TextMeshPro.faceColor. works fine when i use:

    text.faceColor = Color.red;


    but does not work with:

    text.faceColor = new Color(255, 162, 90, 255);

    Hey,

    Color() constructor takes floats and needs rgba values between 0 and 1.0f, but you gave it bytes (0 to 255).

    Try Color32() if you want to set byte values.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. text.faceColor = new Color32(255, 162, 90, 255);
