UI is invisible

Hi

I’ve downloaded the Trash Dash Unity project and when I try create new UI it’s all invisible in the scene window, see screenshot attached. It is only visible in the game window if the canvas is set to Screen Space - Overlay. I want it set to Screen Space - Camera though.

I even tried with a new scene:

  1. Create new scene
  2. Create canvas
  3. Create UI Image

The UI layer is visible, I really am at a loss here.

Please assist!

Ok it’s something to do with the Layers. If I set the Canvas to the Default layer 0, everything works. It’s children can still use the UI layer 5.

What would be causing this? For all other projects the UI canvas object is using the UI layer without issues.
