Utilities Definitive Mesh Inspector

Hey,

I've been working on an actual mesh inspector, to help developers view, anaylze and debug assets within the Unity Editor while offering you a beautiful viewport. I often wished to see the UVs for a mesh, or the number meshes/submeshes in an easily ready format within the editor, so this is my attempt to solve this issue.

Features right now:
- Inspect Vertices, Normals, Tangents, Binormals and UVs
- Have as many windows open at the same time
- Easily double click on a mesh to open the inspector

Features I'll be adding:
- Preview Animations in-editor
- View hierarchy and toggle meshes and submeshes on-off
- Rendering Debug Modes: Vertex-color, Unlit, and possibly more
- User can change lighting and reflection, possibly with user-defined presets

I'm planning to release this at some point, hopefully for free.

 

Finally got Handles to work in my custom viewport which is a huge step. Took me a few hours of pain and going through Unity DLLs to find out how to do it, and there is one ugly hack I'm trying to fix, but I'm fairly happy with the result!

 

Inspired by Unreal, a better mesh preview with unlimited windows, nice lighting and a fully fledged inspector. You can even show BlendShapes! More to come!

 

Any updates on this? In case you do not plan to continue with this, could you please release it "as is" (ie github)? Thanks!

 

I've decided not to pursue this anymore because of the little interest. Source code is pasted below, but beware the code is not cleaned up. Though you will probably find a lot of useful nuggets of editor code in there that took me hours to figure out. Like how to draw multiple 3D editor windows with their own scene, custom handles in those scenes, how to render UVs to a texture and more.

Indeed, that is the nugget i am looking for! Thanks for sharing!
