    EditorGUI.DrawPreviewTexture isn't correctly clipped by scrollviews (Unity 2021.3.3f1)



    All other UI elements in the EditorGUI and GUI namespaces are. Am I missing something? this looks like a bug to me...

    For anyone stumbling upon this, I found the culprit: passing a custom material to
    EditorGUI.DrawPreviewTexture breaks clipping, probably because Unity relies on the shader to perform it. Passing null as the material and allowing Unity to use the built-in blit material allows clipping to work.

    Will try to work out what needs to be done in a custom shader to get this working, but would be nice to mention this pitfall in the documentation.
