TextMesh Pro example scene broken?

Hi everyone,

I'm experimenting a little bit with this asset and the different extras you can add, but I'm facing some difficulties adding TextMesh Pro support.

I added TextMesh Pro into my project and then the TextMesh Pro support package from the download section, but when I start the example scene, no text is showing. After a look into the different text UI elements, they all miss a script.

Did I maybe forget to add anything?

Hi,

The example scene was built to work with the free TextMesh Pro version published by Unity Technologies on the Asset Store. Since it's distributed as a DLL, its TextMeshProUGUI script has a different GUID from Stephan's original, paid version. If you're using Stephan's version and want to get the example scene working, you'll have to assign TextMeshProUGUI to all of the missing script references.

The support package's scripts themselves work fine in any version of TextMesh Pro; it's just the example scene that's tied to specific GUIDs.
