Stephen thanks for the reply. Yeah, like I said in my original post:
–install 2017.2
–delete /Assets/TextMesh Pro/ from my project via Explorer
–double click “TextMesh Pro - Release 1.0.55.2017.2.0b12 (dll only).unitypackage” - gotten from the sticky thread https://forum.unity.com/threads/tex…ation-download-link-for-2017-1-2017-2.458634/ . It opens Unity.
I pay for Unity and had paid for TMP. No free versions of anything.
Today I thought maybe if I upgraded from my current 2017.1.0f3 to 2017.1.1 it might work (vs going straight to 2017.2.0), but got all the same errors and the “ Nothing selected”. I made sure to use “TextMesh Pro - Release 1.0.55.2017.1.0b12 (dll only).unitypackage” too (for Unity 2017.1).
What other info can I give you?
