UI Preview for Prefabs and Canvases

Links: Documentation

✔️ UI Prefab Preview in the Inspector

It works just like the normal 3D object preview.

✔️ Supports Unity 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, ... (LTS)

✔️ Full source code included

Uses assembly definitions to keep the compile times low.

⚠️ Notice:

This is an editor only Asset. There is no runtime API.

If you get a "Can't remove X (Script) because Y (Script) depends on it" message then please uncheck the "Disable Custom Scripts in Preveiw" option in the settings (Tools > UI Preview > Open Settings).

✍️ Use case

Having to double click the prefab and waiting for the Prefab Stage to open just to quickly check what the prefab looks like is cumbersome. This tool solves this problem by showing a preview of the prefab right where usually the preview for a 3D oject is displayed.

⚙️ Installation

Download the Asset and import it into your project.

You are done, no additional setup is needed.

⚒️ Usage

A new menu will be available under "Tools > UI Preview". Go check out the manual once the import is done.

Info: The settings file will be created under Assets/.
