    Hey All,

    I want to add an outline effect to my closeness text, but in the Text Mesh Pro Font Asset Creator, it's not showing a box for Font Style.

    I'm using unity 2019.4.10f1, but i also tried installing the latest text mesh pro on the latest unity version and still had the same issue.

    Any help with this would really be greatly appreciated, I've been trying to fix this on and off for months.

    Thanks
    Chris

    Visual FX such as Dilation, Outline, Shadow, etc are all material properties that you would adjust on SDF Font Assets.

    See the following video which covers Material Presets which is sort of what you will need to be using.

    I would suggest also watching the following videos which cover the font asset creation process and how to handle localization (if needed).

    Thank you so much! I wasn't creating the font correctly to begin with. I can't believe how simple the fix was lol
