Thank you for reporting a bug to Unity. We have reviewed the issue carefully, and in this case, the team is unable to prioritize fixing this bug. There are a number of reasons we make this decision, including the impact and severity of the issue across our user and customer base, and the possibility that future plans may solve the problem in a different way, or that a workaround for the bug may be available. Today we will be closing this case. Thank you again for taking the time to report this issue, and please let us know if there is anything else that changes the impact or severity of this issue.

Steps to reproduce:

Create a new Unity project
Open the "Create new Shader Graph Asset" window (Project window > right click > Create > Shader Graph > From Template...)
Select the "Canvas Meter" template, which should be displayed under the UGUI group, and click the "Create" button
Select a newly created shader graph in the "Project" window
In the shader graph window, find the "Graph Inspector" section
Click "+" and select "Custom Render Texture" in the "Active Targets" section
Observe the result

Actual results: Console displays "Shader error in 'UGUI Canvas/Master': 'VertexColor' is not available in Custom Render Textures. at /(99)" error

Expected results: No errors in the Console view

Reproducible with versions: 6000.3.0b2, 6000.3.10f1, 6000.4.0b10, 6000.5.0a8

Can’t test with versions:

6000.0.68f1 as the template window is not accessible in this build
6000.3.0b1 as "Canvas Meter" template is not accessible in this build

Tested on (OS): macOS - Tahoe 26.2
