    Hey all,
    If you love the uGUI layout groups but wish there was an equivalent solution for non UI objects, Ive submitted an asset just for that!

    3D Layout Groups extend the easy to use components into the third dimension allowing you to quickly create a variety of perfect layouts using any gameobject.

    All functionality contained in a single script with a full featured custom inspector. All source code included with comments!

    Now live on the asset store! ($5 USD)
    https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/utilities/3d-layout-groups-115481

    Supports Linear layouts (Horizontal / Vertical in the X, Y or Z axis), Grid layouts, Volumetric layouts and Radial layouts.

    I will be updating this frequently and if you guys have any suggestions for different layout types or features, post here and Ill try to include them in the next update!



    Linear Layout
    -Arranges objects along a straight line with adjustable spacing
    -Select an axis (X, Y, or Z) to arrange the objects along relative to their parent

    Grid Layout
    -Specify grid dimensions and arrange elements in a grid just like the uGUI version
    -Select constraint axis and constraint count for dynamic flexible grids

    Euclidean Layout
    -Arrange elements in a cubic grid with specified X, Y and Z dimensions
    -Select primary and secondary constraint axes and counts to create volumetric shape matrices
    -Perfect for quickly creating destructible walls and structures

    Radial Layout
    -Arrange elements radially in a plane
    -Adjustable arc angle, radius and offset angles
    -Set a spiral factor value to generate all sorts of spiral arrangements
    -Option to align the up vector of element's transforms to their radial positions

    Nice, thank you! I was wondering, how I could have a grid of 3D objects for a VR menu, but the Layout Groups did not work :D
