Move and grab objects

Function

The following objects can be moved and grabbed in Halocline Performance:

  • interactable elements
  • CAD objects
  • Tools
  • Load carrier, such as
    • Storage bin,
    • KLT and
    • User customized load carrier.

The lattice box cannot be moved because in production the they should not be moved manually by the worker.

Instructions

Moving parts and CAD objects

Menu > Tools > Interact

To grab and move objects, use the "Interact" tool. It is automatically activated on both hands after you have started Performance. You can also find this function in the menu under "Tools".

When the grab tool is activated, you will see hands instead of controllers. A sphere is displayed in the hands. This sphere is your interaction point: To grab an object move the blue sphere into the object. A color change of the object shows you when the sphere touches it. Then click the trigger to pick up the object. To put the object down again, move it to the target location and click the trigger again.

Interaction with load carriers

You can interact with load carriers in two different ways. On way is to take the assigned part out of a load carrier. To do this, place the blue ball in part inside the load carrier and grab it by pressing the trigger.

The other way is to grab and move the entire load carrier: to do this, place the ball in the bottom or in the wall of the container and then press the trigger to move the container.

If no part is assigned to a load carrier, you can take out a placeholder object. Place the sphere in the center of the load carrier and click the trigger to take out the object.
