I cannot get my textmeshpro object to appear anywhere, it doesn’t show up in the game view and it for some reason just appears as a blue box in the scene view, I know there are a lot of other people who asked about this before on previous forums, but I looked through them all and tried everything, I set the layers of both the canvas and the text to the same layer as the camera, I’ve tried all three render modes on the canvas, The script works and I use the correct TextMeshProUGUI object, I have no idea what’s going on.
can someone help?

Make sure that you have imported the TMP Essential Resources and the TMP Examples & Extras. To manually import those, go to “Window - TextMeshPro - Import …”.
Once these have been imported, you should be able to simply create a new TextMeshProUGUI object using the “Create - UI - Text - TextMeshPro” context menu.
Let me know if doing the above does show the new TextMeshProUGUI object and text in the scene view and game view. Since the Canvas does place objects in some potentially random location, be sure to change the RectTransform position to (0, 0, 0).

Thankyou, importing the extras chunk of the textmeshpro fixed it
Thank you so much! I searched everywhere and did all the things like change the position, render etc. This was the only thing that fixed my issue, thank you!
