Mesh-Gizmos for Unity

A collection of functions that imitate Unity's gizmo functionality using transforms and meshes.

Built With

Unity 2020.1.4f1 Universal Render Pipeline

Language

C#

Getting Started

1. Add Mesh Gizmos Container prefab to your scene.
2. From your script, find MeshGizmos instance with MeshGizmos.Instance. (eg. var _Gizmos = MeshGizmos.Instance;)
3. Use instance to call each gizmo as you would with regurlar gizmo calls. (eg. _Gizmos.DrawLine(Vector3.zero, Vector3.one, Color.yellow);) Does not need to be in OnDrawGizmos().
4. If you would like to use your own material then you can add it to the Material reference in Mesh Gizmos Container prefab.

For use with HDRP some extra steps are needed.

1. Find gizmo material
2. Select shader tab ->HDRP -> Lit
