Overview

Summary

Because of the way Unity handles UI rendering, a canvas element that changes its position, scale, or rotation forces the canvas to rebuild. Changing the contents of a UI object such as text also forces this rebuild. In this tutorial, you will learn to use Static and Dynanic Canvases to control overall lag.
