Unity editor extension to bookmark scene views.

Scene View Bookmarks

Unity editor extension that adds scene view bookmarks, allowing you to quickly return the scene camera to preset positions.

Inspired by camera bookmarks in Unreal Engine.

Requirements

Unity 2019.4 or later. The scene overlay only appears in 2021.2 and up.

Installing

1. Open Window > Package Manager
2. Click the + button in the top-left corner
3. Choose "Add package from git URL..."
4. Enter https://github.com/mminer/scene-view-bookmarks.git

Using

Choose Window > Scene View Bookmarks > Set Bookmark 1 to save the scene camera's current position. When you want to return to the view that you bookmarked, choose Window > Move to Bookmark 1.

For faster access press option / alt 1 to save a bookmark then shift 1 to return to it.

After recalling a bookmark, restore the former scene view using Window > Scene View Bookmarks > Return to Previous View or by pressing shift 0. Think of this as an undo of sorts.

Scene Overlays

If you use 2021.2 or later you can access bookmarks from a dropdown in the Scene window. Click the ⋮ button in the top-right of the window and choose Overlays > Scene View Bookmarks.

Search

Use the svb: filter in Unity's built-in Search window for yet another way to access bookmarks.
