About
This plugin helps you generate preview textures (thumbnails) for your GameObject's or materials on the fly.

Features
- Supports perspective and orthographic projections
- Supports transparent background
- Customizable preview direction and background color

NOTE: GenerateMaterialPreviewWithShader and GenerateModelPreviewWithShader functions aren't supported on URP/HDRP.

FAQ
- Rendered thumbnail is empty, why?
If shouldIgnoreParticleSystems parameter is set to false, child particle systems of the model may force the camera to zoom out a lot. Or, on SRPs, your Forward Renderer asset's Opaque Layer Mask and/or Transparent Layer Mask might be excluding layer 22 (preview objects are temporarily assigned to this layer).

- Rendered thumbnail doesn't look correct, why?
If there are lighting issues and you're generating thumbnails in Awake, try Start instead. Otherwise, try disabling post-processing effects and see if it makes any difference. If it does, then you should temporarily disable post-processing while capturing thumbnails.

Older Versions
For older versions of Unity, you can download the plugin from GitHub. Supports at least Unity 5.6.
