It's frustrating to know that this worked in an older beta version. After some testing, we found out how strange masking is. A single mask in a scene writes 1 to the stencil buffer, which makes sense. A nested second mask then writes 3 to the stencil buffer, which is strange. And finally a 3rd level of nested masks writes 11 into the stencil buffer.
Any UI.Text or UI.Image components under this 3rd mask will not render, as this issue states, and we're failing to see a pattern in the masks writing 1, 3, and 11 respectively to the stencil buffer. An extra test also indicated that a 4th mask as a child of the 3rd doesn't write anything to the stencil buffer at all (it remains at 11). We really would really appreciate getting this fixed, as we use nested masks in several places in our game menu.
