_Unity extension to allow you to assign Object fields by picking it from the scene view_ ## About the Project Sometimes scene hierarchies get complex and you get in a frustrating situation where you need to assign a field and you know exactly where it is in the scene, but it's hard to point out in the hierarchy. I figured: why not make something to allow you to assign fields by pointing where the object is in the scene? That's exactly what this is. [Video](https://youtu.be/SVsugZvvoHA) ![Example](https://github.com/RoyTheunissen/Scene-View-Picker/raw/master/Documentation~/Example.gif) ## Getting Started - Add the package to your Unity project (tips on how to install it are in the Installation section) - Open a script with fields derived from Object - Click the new button next to the hierarchy picker - Left Click to pick the desired object from the scene - Middle Click to pick from nearby objects when they are cluttered together - Right Click to cancel ## Extras - If you want a callback whenever a field is assigned via picking, add the `[PickCallback("OnPicked")]` attribute - You can specify the name of a method to be called - This method can be parameterless or have two parameters of the same type of the field - In the latter case, the previous and current value are provided ## Installation ### Package Manager Go to `Edit > Project Settings > Package Manager`. Under 'Scoped Registries' make sure there is an OpenUPM entry. If you don't have one: click the `+` button and enter the following values: - Name: `OpenUPM`
- URL: `https://package.openupm.com`
Then under 'Scope(s)' press the `+` button and add `com.roytheunissen`. It should look something like this:
