About

Animation Hover Preview lets you instantly preview any AnimationClip just by moving your mouse over it — no clicks, no extra windows.

If your Inspector is crowded with AnimationClip fields, or your project holds dozens of clips, this tool was built for your workflow: stop clicking a clip field, waiting for it to open, then going back to the Inspector — just hover it.

Features

  • Mouse-hover preview in the Project window and Inspector (UI Toolkit & IMGUI) — works on any Inspector.
  • Interactive viewport (optional) — orbit, pan, zoom and double-click to reset; the view angle is remembered across previews.
  • Auto model resolution for generic, embedded and humanoid clips.
  • Clip metadata overlay (optional) — length, FPS, frame count, loop flag and root-motion flag.
  • Three window sizes (Small / Medium / Large), multi-monitor aware.
  • Fully customizable — visual style, window size and position, playback speed, hover delay, humanoid model and more; every setting persists per project between sessions.
