    I see that it has been several years since UI Toolkit development started and to this day it is still not at least 1:1 with respect to uGUI.

    Not having this possibility makes us unable to create interfaces in VR.

    Are you working on it? If so, when is it expected? Months? Years?

    Thanks.

    I think the general concern of parity with UGUI is addressed by this thread:
    https://forum.unity.com/threads/whe...rmance-parity-with-ugui.1327947/#post-8393574

    We are currently not working on World Space. We can't give an exact date as when it is to be expected, but yes we are talking in terms of years before this is available.

    Although work for it isn't in progress, it is definitely in the back of our minds. Some of the rendering architecture is ready for it, but we're gonna need to revisit some fundamental assumptions to make it happen.
    UI Authoring is also a big concern. The UI Builder will need to evolve quite a bit to allow 3D authoring.

    So while it's not actually in progress, it's something we have an eye on and we frequently talk about its priority relative to other improvements or features.
