We’ve been working on a 2D game in Unity3D and I’d written this a while back to show the view frustrum of the camera in the scene view and had been meaning to post it:

Yellow wireframe outlines view frustrum. Top is scene view, bottom is game view

Create a new c# script in Unity and call it “DrawCameraViewFrustrum.cs”.  Copy/paste the code below and attach it to your camera object in your scene.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class DrawCameraViewFrustrum : MonoBehaviour
{</pre>
#if UNITY_EDITOR
	public static Vector2 GetMainGameViewSize()
	{
		System.Type T = System.Type.GetType("UnityEditor.GameView,UnityEditor");
		System.Reflection.MethodInfo GetSizeOfMainGameView = T.GetMethod("GetSizeOfMainGameView",System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Static);
		System.Object Res = GetSizeOfMainGameView.Invoke(null,null);
		return (Vector2)Res;
	}
	#endif
