Title: NullReferenceException in GetMeshDimensionsForString Unity 4.5.4f1
Post by: fallingbrickwork on September 15, 2014, 09:53:11 am

Hi,

I seem to have acquired a NullReferenceException via my call to GetEstimatedMeshBoundsForString since updating unity to 4.5.4f1.

Is this something my end or an issue in the tk2d core.. btw i'm on 2.4.0. Would updating to 2.5 fix this? Is these something I can amend in the code for a 'quick fix'?

Regards,
Matt.

GetEstimatedMeshBoundsForString - is there an InitInstance() right at the start of the function? My vpn isn't working and I can't roll back history to check...

Hmmm.. is the font still bound properly on it?

Ahh, the font.... yes that is what it is... updating Unity seems to have messed up my fonts. Not on all the Tk2dTextMesh, but on some.. hmmm.

Many thanks for helping to track it down... it appears the issue is with this.

Many thanks,
Matt.
