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 "Interact" tool is activated, a blue ball is placed in front of the controller. This ball is your "interaction point": the objects you want to interact with must touch this ball. To grab an object, move the blue ball into it. Then press the trigger and keep it pressed. The object remains in your hand as long as you keep the trigger pressed. To put the object down, move it to the target location and release the trigger.
If you have previously calibrated for a recording, the controllers are visualized as points (previously: hands) during the recording. The balls are then centered in the hands. When the recording is played back, your position and posture are represented by an avatar.
Interaction with containers
You can interact with containers in two different ways. On way is to take the assigned part out of a container. To do this, place the blue ball in part inside the container and grab it by holding the trigger down.
The other way is to grab and move the entire container: to do this, place the ball in the bottom or in the wall of the container and then hold down the trigger to move the container.
If no component is assigned to a container, you can take out a placeholder screw. Place the ball in the center of the container and press and hold the trigger to take out the screw.
