Simple UI setup demonstrating placing Unity UI objects relative to a 3D scene and optimizing for displaying only items in view.

Check out Adam's awesome UI Live training session, check full of UI goodness.

Big thanks to Adam Buckner of Unity for the source project (been begging him for ages to drag it out of the closet)
