VSCode cannot find the TMPro namespace

[JackK]

No conflicts come up in Unity, so I was able to complete the lecture without a problem. It’s just VS Code that’s giving me an error, and that’s distracting. What do I need to do to clear this?

Hi JackK,

Is the Text Mesh Pro package installed in Window > Package Manager in Unity?

[JackK]

Hi Nina,

Yes, it appears to be. I don’t have any conflicts in Unity. Just VS.

Is Visual Studio selected as your External Script Editor in Unity (Edit > Preferences > External Tools)?

If so, close Unity and VS. Then delete the *.cspro and *.sln files in your project folder. Launch Unity again and double click on your script. Did this fix it?

That did the trick. Thank you, Nina!
