To align your editor’s scene window view to an axis, it is arduous to find the corresponding leg of the Scene Gizmo and click it with the mouse:

Are there keyboard shortcuts for the axes, akin to Numpad 1, 3, and 7 in Blender?

If not, how might one implement them with an editor script?

Couldn’t find any hotkeys myself, but it is possible to make a script to do it.

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;
using System.Collections;

class GizmoTest {
	
	[MenuItem ("Gizmo/Front View _1")]
	static void FrontView () {
		GetSceneView().orthographic = true;
		GetSceneView().LookAtDirect(GetSceneView().pivot,
			Quaternion.LookRotation(Vector3.forward));
    }
    
	
	[MenuItem ("Gizmo/Side View _3")]
	static void SideView () {
		GetSceneView().orthographic = true;
		GetSceneView().LookAtDirect(GetSceneView().pivot,
			Quaternion.LookRotation(Vector3.right));
    }
	
	[MenuItem ("Gizmo/Top View _7")]
    static void TopView () {
		GetSceneView().orthographic = true;
		GetSceneView().LookAtDirect(GetSceneView().pivot,
			Quaternion.LookRotation(Vector3.down));
    }
	
	[MenuItem ("Gizmo/Perspective View _5")]
    static void PerspectiveView () {
		GetSceneView().orthographic = !GetSceneView().orthographic;
		GetSceneView().LookAtDirect(GetSceneView().pivot,
			Quaternion.LookRotation(Vector3.forward + Vector3.right + Vector3.down));
    }
	
	static SceneView GetSceneView() {
		SceneView activeSceneView = null;
		
		if (SceneView.lastActiveSceneView != null) {
			activeSceneView = SceneView.lastActiveSceneView;
		}
		else if (SceneView.sceneViews.Count != 0){
			activeSceneView = (SceneView.sceneViews[0] as SceneView);
		}
		
		return activeSceneView;
	}
}

This script will work on all the numbers of the keyboard, don’t know if there is any way to only check numpad.
