TextMeshPro 3.0.1 Doesn't preserve prefab font size

I tried updating to 2020.1 and as part of that upgraded to TextMesh Pro 3.0.1 and noticed that some of our prefabs with TextMeshPro text components lost their font size settings. They get set to 36, my guess is that's a default size.

I was able to reproduce the problem in a sample project with a simplified prefab consistently by loading it into 2020.1.0f1 (the only 2020.1 version that lets you swap TextMeshPro packages). In TextMesh Pro 3.0.0-preview1 it properly reads the font size in the prefab, but I you update to 3.0.1 it sets the font size to 36.

I submitted a case 1286412 that you can use to see the issue.

 

Thank you for submitting a bug report on this.

I have already resolved a similar case but will be checking against your report to make sure the fix also handles your case.

I'll provide an update as soon as I can confirm the fix.

 

@Stephan_B Sounds good, thanks for taking a look!
