    This happens when I build my game and not in the editor.
    I am using Unity 2021.1.0a7.1331
    Every UI element, no matter the Canvas, apears like pink blocks
    Screenshot from build:

    This behavior is most likely the result of the shaders not being included in the builds.

    Provided your text objects are referenced in scenes or prefabs, the font assets they reference and their material and shaders should be included by default. However, if none of these are referenced in the scene or prefabs and these font assets are not contained in a resources folder and placed at the location specified in the TMP Settings file, then you would be likely to get the behavior above.

    @Stephan_B if we're trying to replace using Resources with Addressables, what's the recommended way to ensure font assets are included in the build? We use the fonts all through our prefabs but not embedded in the scene at app initlialization.

    @Stephan_B I have the same problem with the addressables that all the text is pink. What do you suggest how to implement the TMP Shader?
