    Can you reproduce this in the editor in play mode? We have a similiar issue with Text Mesh Pro on Android.

    Any info on this? Was avoiding migrating to Unity 2019 because upgrading to new Unity version is always a buggy hell, but ended up migrating and am having this same problem with all TextMesh elements (non-UI).

    EDIT: on Editor it works fine, it doesnt work on Android production build

    Update: in fact my text isnt missing. It's just totally misplaced (including Z) and also with the wrong size. I have no idea what is causing this. And this happens only on Android. This game is very old and stable, this problem was caused by upgrading from 2018.latest to 2019.1.9. I couldnt find a bug report for this, or a forum thread that specifically talks about this problem, so I will continue to post here meanwhile.

    Ok, finally made it work. After around 20 builds, on each build I would change 1 little detail and try again... finally it worked. I had to disable "SRP Batcher (Experimental)" on the LWRP settings (LightweightRenderPipelineAsset on inspector).
