    Hey,

    I was just trying to use Textmesh Pro's <indent> tag to style the output of a tooltip. While color and size tags work fine, indent seems to be unrecognized and just shows up as text.

    Is this a tooltip thing or are tags like indent or cspace not supported?

    Assuming you're talking about tooltips in the context of the Editor, they are currently rendered with a different text engine which only supports a small subset of rich text tags. We are however making some changes in that area and this could mean all Rich Text tags will be supported for tooltips soon.

    That sounds great. Any chance this will be backported to Unity 2022.2 or do we have to wait for 2023?

    I can confirm this will work with Unity 2023, but won't be backported.
