About

Prefab Placement mode enables you to "paint" prefabs onto a mesh, similar to painting in detail meshes (grass, rocks, etc) with the Terrain Tools.

Usage

1. In your scene, select the mesh you intend to paint on
2. Click the Prefab Placement toolbar button ()
3. If you haven't already, add your prefabs by drag-and-dropping them into the Prefabs area (labeled "Drag Prefabs here!")
4. Click to select a single prefab, or SHIFT-click to select multiple- you will see a green bar highlight below each selected prefab
5. Modify your Brush if needed, and paint onto the mesh in your scene
