    Hello. Does anyone know how to get an object to check if it's fully visible to the main camera? I suspect it has to do with the renderer's bounds, but have no idea how to check that against the camera's frustum.

    Thanks in advance!:)

    I'm assuming that you've looked at the Renderer class's isVisible variable and that it doesn't suit your needs, since it isn't a check for a fully visible state.

    How flexible/precise do you need the check to be? I would try just calculating it using the transforms of the camera and target object as input.
