[RELEASED - FREE] Hierarchy Icon

DOWNLOAD LINK
Asset Store

DESCRIPTION
CGHierarchyIcons is a simple package used to show an icon at the right of the GameObjects' names in the HierarchyView.

It is composed of a simple script that is added to GameObjects and through an editor script you can select the icon and add an optional tooltip.

You can select as icon all the textures Unity can reference, including yours in the ProjectView.

NOTES
- The properties of the HierarchyIcon script are only compiled in the Unity Editor.
- After you build your project, all instances of the HierarchyIcon attached to game objects are destroyed from the scenes since they are unuseless on build.

 

why don't you add this to the Asset Store?

 

Thank you for this very useful tool, you saved my eyes!

Hi!!!

The version 1.0.1 was updated.
Now we can select the Direction property place the icons also from left to right.




Enjoy the package!!!!

 

This is an awesome tool, thank you!! Is it possible so that clicking on the icon in hierarchy won't bring up a menu to select an icon?

 

Just got this asset - really nice, easy to use, and free! Thanks a lot @COBO1990 !

To do this, open the CGHierarchyIcons / Editor / UnityCallbacks / ShowIconOnHierarchyView.cs file, and comment out this section at the bottom :

Code (CSharp):

1. // and draw a button for change the icon and display the tooltip
2.                 if (GUI.Button(rect, new GUIContent(string.Empty, hierarchyIcon.tooltip), EditorStyles.label))
3.                     PopupWindow.Show(rect, new PickIconWindow(hierarchyIcon));

 

Thanks, I'll try that!

Also, comment out the cursor change:

//EditorGUIUtility.AddCursorRect(rect, MouseCursor.Link);

 

Wery thanks!
