viewport ceased to work shortly after first-time running of Unity, hasn't returned
Hey guys.
So basically I ran Unity for the first time today, and initially I was able to view the first island demo scene in the view port. However shortly after trying to navigate the environment a little bit, it ceased to display at all. I can see a little error/assert at the bottom left.
Expanding gave me the following read out, which I'll attach here. Among the several asserts that I can read out of the console, the one that repeats is this:
!IsNormalized(dir) UnityEngine.Camera:ScreenPointToRay(Vector3)
I'm very new to Unity and just curious if anyone knows what would cause this. I've updated my video drivers and DirectX, and tried restarting/reinstalling, without much luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
That sounds like a problem with the project, not your computer.

If none of the other answers fix it, click any object in the scene hierachy, move your mouse over the scene view and click F
It sometimes happens when you zoom out way too far

I can't confirm it myself, but this error is apparently fixable by going to Window > Layouts > Revert Factory Settings...
