Question Instantiate object in front of editor camera?

How can I Instantiate an object in front of the editor scene camera?

This would be the normal way using a ingame camera

Code (CSharp):

1. Camera.main.transform.position + Camera.main.transform.forward * distance;

Reading some documentation it looks like this is how you access the editor camera but am running into errors. Don't think I am able to use transform.forward with this.

Code (CSharp):

1. UnityEditor.SceneView.lastActiveSceneView;

 

You're almost there...

SceneView

has a Camera property:
