TextMesh Pro TMP causing weird behavior in canvas settings

Hi,

I find myself unable to change Canvas Additional Shader Channels in the prefab, specifically I can't disable "Normal" and "Tangent" option. In the case I manage to do so, once I open the prefab, it resets and brings them back.

So I keep getting the warning under the setting "Shader channels Normal and Tanget are often used with lightning, which an Overlay canvas does not support. Its likely these channels are not needed".

Having the issue since I downloaded TMP package, so I thought it is probably a TMP behavior (I am using only "Raster" fonts by the way, so I don't need those unnecessary shader channels).

Thanks in advance

P.S : Using TMP 1.3.0.

 

The TMP Distance Field shaders do need those additional channels. The Bitmap shaders do not.

As soon as I have time, I'll revise this to make sure only the required channels are set by TMP.

 

I have this same problem. I am running TextMesh Pro 2.0.1

 

It was still a problem with TextMesh Pro v3.0.1 Preview, but it seems to be fixed as of v3.0.1 Verified. Wohoo!

 

No, this has not been fixed. Using v 3.0.4 Preview.

 

This warning will eventually be deprecated as it is confusing and there is virtually no performance impact to having those additional channels.

 

Hopefully the next release will address this issue!

 

Is this next release available yet ?
