    Have you experienced that you modified prefab instances and forgot to click 'Apply' button?

    I did so many times, so I made this asset.
    This asset keeps tracking of whether you make a change to your instances by showing check marks.

    Overview

    This editor extension simply shows whether or not the prefab instances in Hierarchy Window are identical to the original 'Prefab' in terms of a property or component. If one of properties is changed or a component is added/deleted, the check mark beside the prefab instance would change to exclamation mark which means something is different from the original prefab. That is, it prevents users from changing property values accidentally or forgetting to click apply button to apply changes to the original prefab.



    How to use


    Click 'Window' on the top menu bar, and click 'PrefabChecker'.
    In the popup window, click 'show' button to show prefab instance status in Hierarchy Window.
    To hide the status, click 'hide' or close the popup window.

    does it highlight the blue for modified parts? I did not like unity default bold text to show modified. It's not very visible.

    In the current version, modified parts are shown as default bold text, but highlighting in blue would be a good feature. I will add this to the next release version.
