    Hi there,

    I'm attempting to reference a text label inside my UIDocument via the new Unity Visual Scripting.

    I believe I need to replicate the below code to query the rootVisualElement but I can't seem to find the correct 'node' or sequence of 'nodes' in the Visual Scripting panel.

    var myLabel = rootVisualElement.Q<Label>("myLabel");

    I simply want to set its value at run-time.

    Any advice would be much appreciated. Maybe I'm missing some node or type assembly?

    Hello! UI Toolkit is not yet integrated with Visual Scripting, it works only with UGUI, Unity's previous and still main UI system. Sorry to disappoint you! :oops:

    It's not on our current roadmap, no, although we do have it on our radar of course. You can check both the Visual Scripting and the UI roadmaps in this link: https://unity.com/roadmap/unity-platform/gameplay-ui-design

    There you can see what's in progress and what's coming, and you can also submit your own requests of what you think Unity should work on :cool:
