Prefab preview is dark in the inspector

Hi folks,

I didn’t know where to ask this question since it’s not really a difficulty/problem that i’m facing - per say.

The issue is that the prefab preview image in the inspector is super dark, and i can’t make out what it looks like (see the image below).
I’ve tried increasing the brightness of my monitor but the brightness of the preview window is still insufficient.

Could someone please help me out?

Regards

Godfrey

I had the same problem. I had my build settings set for WebGL when I switched to standalone the light came back on. I also loaded the Unity UI elements demo project from GitHub and when I switched from standalone to WebGL the lighting in the preview window was turned off. So it seems to a general problem with WebGL settings.

Hello @Ryuuguu, How does one do the switching you mention?

That doesn't solve the issue. The same happen in IOS / Android platforms as well.

I filled a bug report. The problem turned out to be me having set up a shader wrong. worked it in WebGL by accident but did not work in the native renderer. They extended the native renderer to handle my mistake. The details are in the bug report. https://fogbugz.unity3d.com/default.asp?1163130_ils2k3d9bvfbfrnv

Try editing the materials of the plant

Hi @meaburrooq, Is there a way to brighten up the preview window instead, such that i don't have to tweak the materials settings?

Thanks! That helped. :)
