hello everyone.
I’m having some trouble on unity 2D 2018.3.4f1

my main issue is that my canvas is stuck at one size, and cannot be resized due to the canvas rect being greyed out. I’ve tried to just rescale my text object on the screen, but the text itself does not change size , only the box around it. This would be fine if it was a reasonable size, but it’s so big it’s next to useless.

i’m attempting to have it follow the player by attaching it to the camera, (which is scripted to follow the player) but i just get a bunch of view out of frustrum errors.

here you can see the scale of the canvas compared to my objects, and the greyed out options.

Thanks for your time and help, and have a great day everyone!!
