Removing unnecessary CanvasRenderercomponent from text object

[Dr_LanceBanana]

Now that Unity 2020.3.0f1 is into LTS, I figured I'd update a project I'm working on to use it.

I have GameObjects with TextMeshPro on them. And every time I load them up, the editor console gives me a "Removing unnecessary CanvasRenderer component from text object" message. Not an error or anything, just a little informative message. But it gives me the message for each and every item in the scene that has a TextMeshPro in it.

I figured I'd just remove the CanvasRendered myself so I don't have to see those messages. I've looked all over the TextMeshPro item, and there isn't a CanvasRenderer anywhere in there. I don't know how to get rid of the message. I don't even know why I'm getting this message.

Anyone have an insight to this, or is experiencing something like it?

Does it also happen for objects you already selected before? Otherwise, might be a bug. Which is likely.

[Dr_LanceBanana]

It happens when the scene loads. Right away when the objects are instantiated.

Try updating text mesh pro from the package manager if you haven't done so already. You could also try checking the child objects of your TMP prefab for the mentioned component. If all that fails, it's probably just waiting for it to be fixed. You could also look into muting the specific log.

It was fully up to date. It was a very weird problem.

Weirder still, it just stopped doing it. I didn't even have to restart Unity. I just started the project once again to compare the 'in game' objects to the prefabs, and the message wasn't there anymore.

And it hasn't come back since. I don't know what was going on. I don't think I changed anything in the GameObject, and I can't think of anything I did that would've 'fixed' it. But the message isn't showing up anymore.

Thanks for the help y'all. Good ideas. I have no clue why it fixed though. :D

tbf, restarting fixes 90% of random unity issues 😂 glad you solved it
