    Loving TextMesh Pro but there's a liiitle problem when making text a prefab.

    Currently, when I change an instance of a prefab's Color (Vertex) value, it reverts to it's source's value on saving the scene or on entering play mode.

    Here's a link to an isolated project of the bug. Pretty straight forward.

    This is using the new free version of TextMesh Pro.

    Thanks for your time! <3

    I had a chance to look into this and the behavior is related to some change with the [FormerlySerializedAs] attribute.

    Since this was used to handle conversion of older TMP text objects created prior to Unity 4.6, this attribute / handling is no longer necessary so I have removed it. I'll try to release a new version of TMP within the next few days.
