Methods

CreatePreviewCamera(Scene, bool)

public static Camera CreatePreviewCamera(Scene scene, bool addToScene = true)

Create and configure a preview camera in the specified scene

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
scene	UnityEngine.SceneManagement.Scene
addToScene	System.Boolean

Returns

UnityEngine.Camera — No return description is available.

SetupCameraBackground(Camera)

public static void SetupCameraBackground(Camera camera)

Setup camera background based on configuration

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
camera	UnityEngine.Camera

GetBackgroundColor()

public static Color GetBackgroundColor()

Get background color based on render pipeline

Returns

UnityEngine.Color — No return description is available.

PositionCameraForScene(Camera, Bounds)

public static void PositionCameraForScene(Camera camera, Bounds bounds)

Position camera for scene rendering based on scene bounds

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
camera	UnityEngine.Camera
bounds	UnityEngine.Bounds

CalculateCameraDistance(Bounds, Camera, float, float, float, float)

public static float CalculateCameraDistance(Bounds bounds, Camera camera, float paddingPercent, float angleX, float angleY, float fillFraction = 1)

Calculate the optimal camera distance for framing an object with configurable padding. Uses a hybrid approach: projected bounds calculation verified by corner projection to ensure all 8 bounding box corners fit within the view frustum.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
bounds	UnityEngine.Bounds	The bounding box of the object to frame
camera	UnityEngine.Camera	The camera (for FOV)
paddingPercent	System.Single	Padding as a percentage (e.g., 2 for 2%)
angleX	System.Single	Vertical camera angle in degrees (0 = eye level, 90 = top-down)
angleY	System.Single	Horizontal camera angle in degrees (rotation around Y axis)
fillFraction	System.Single	Target viewport fill (1 = fit exactly). Lower values bring the camera closer.

Returns

System.Single — The optimal distance from the camera to the bounds center

CalculateCameraDistance(Bounds, Camera)

public static float CalculateCameraDistance(Bounds bounds, Camera camera)

Simplified overload using current config settings for angles and padding

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
bounds	UnityEngine.Bounds
camera	UnityEngine.Camera

Returns

System.Single — No return description is available.

PositionCameraFor3D(Camera, Bounds)

public static void PositionCameraFor3D(Camera camera, Bounds bounds)

Position perspective camera for 3D object rendering

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
camera	UnityEngine.Camera
bounds	UnityEngine.Bounds
