I don't have 2022.2 installed at the moment unfortunately. The error originates from built-in Image component for some reason, it may or may not be an internal Unity bug (happens from time to time). If you open the IngameDebugConsole prefab, make a dummy change and re-save it, does it resolve the issue?

[HyagoOliveira]

The warning messages are from some Editor code. No matter if we change the IngameDebugConsole prefab (or create a new one), the warnings spam from time to time.

I have encountered the exact same issue too. Are there any chances this is an internal Unity bug?

• Unity version: 2022.2.2f1
• Platform: Windows
• Device: Editor
• How did you download the plugin: Asset Store

There is a chance yeah. So far, it did happen numerous times for different plugins of mine. I usually apply a workaround on those Unity versions when applicable but I just haven't installed 2022.2 yet so I can't say if the same can be done for this issue at the moment.

Workaround: https://forum.unity.com/threads/in-game-debug-console-open-source.411323/page-3#post-8920076

tl;dr

Disable Canvas Scaler in the IngameDebugConsole object/prefab and add the following script to it:

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

[DefaultExecutionOrder(1)]
public class IngameDebugConsoleWarningsWorkaround : MonoBehaviour
{
    private void Start()
    {
        GetComponent<CanvasScaler>().enabled = true;
    }
}

Thanks alot for fix, those warnings were driving me crazy.

I've finally applied a simpler built-in solution to this problem. Hopefully the warnings won't show up anymore 🤞
