Memory Profiler - no "Material Count" anymore

Hi guys,

I accidentally clicked on the small “install version xxx” button on the profiler, it updated to the current Memory Profiler version (1.1.3).

Since then, when clicking on “Memory” and looking at Materials, there is no count anymore:


Only the total size is shown.

The actual count was extremely helpful though, as I immediately spotted bad code, when material count would go up on certain actions.
I’m not able anymore to spot these with the total size, as it takes time with really small materials to even go up 0.1 MB.

Any way to show the actual count again?

Edit: found an image from Unity Docs from an earlier version, still showing the count:

Ok found out how to solve this.

I just removed the “Memory Profiler” package completely. The profiler still works and is showing the material count again!
That’s all I need from it right now.

Yes, the Memory Profiler package overrides the Memory Profiler module UI when installed and we aligned the design of the bar charts between the two. With that, the count got removed, kind of on accident. We’ll look at how to bring it back.

BTW, you don’t have to go so far as to uninstall the Memory Profiler package. Instead you can also go to the Preferences > Analysis > Memory Profiler and uncheck the Replace Memory UI in Profiler Window checkbox and reopen the Memory Profiler window.
