Roll a Ball UI Text is massive and in wrong place
I am following the updated tutorial called roll a ball off of the Unity website but I have encountered a problem. I got to the second to last video and created the UI text like the tutorial told me to. It created a canvas and an event something and text, I think this is normal. In the tutorial the text appeared straight away in the game view but for me it didn't so I zoomed out and looked for it. This is what I saw: I am not sure what I have done wrong, I followed the tutorial EXACTLY
Please help, this is very annoying :(

It should appear in the game view if you actually checked the game view.
The screenshot shows the scene view. And in scene view, the canvas and UI are always huge. It's not a problem because they'll still show up on the camera and the game view.
$$anonymous$$ight also help to confirm that the game view's scale is set to 1x. $$anonymous$$ine was set to 1.1x and managed to cut off the portion of the game view with the text element in it.

Answer by @allenallenallen Thank you SO MUCH. I have no idea why this information was so hard to find. I looked everywhere and everyone was trying to get me to alter ratios and a ton of other garbage.
