Hi,

I have been struggling with this crash for 3+ months, it started happening when I upgraded Unity LTS from 2021.3.22f1 (textmesh 3.2.0-pre.4) to 2021.3.29f1 (textmesh 3.2.0-pre.5).

I already tried to rollback the textmesh version to pre.4, tried the latest version, tried to upgrade to LTS 2022, but now I’m back to 2021.3.32f1.

I’m not able to reproduce this issue in the editor, it only happens on devices (Android) on the field and this crash happens thousands of times

Apparently this is a silent crash, not affecting the game itself and it seems to be happening after the user interacts with the input field.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this or how to investigate further?

Thanks!

It happens on iOS as well. Anything with a software keyboard.
