Resolved TextMesh Pro and Visual Scripting - Do they integrate?

Hi,

I've built a countdown timer with the built-in visual scripting (formerly Bolt) and have it rendering in-game using Text Mesh, but that looks like garbage and I'd rather be using TextMeshPro.

I can't see any units for TMP in the VS interface - am I right to assume there's no integration there or am I missing something? Am I going to have to write a proper script to update TMP text from a VS-generated string variable?

Any suggestions appreciated.

 

In Project Settings/Visual Scripting add a new type of TextMeshProUGUI for UI version and/or TextMeshPro for worldspace, then regenerate units. TextMeshPro related nodes will come up in search after that.

 

Oh, I didn't see the little '+' symbol at the bottom of the node library at all! That's sorted it—thanks very much!
