Basic manupulation

In ShapesXR there are two interaction modes - direct and ray.

There is one simple rule - use the trigger button to select objects and the grip button to grab them.

Direct mode

Get close to an object and touch it directly with the trigger button to select it or pull the object holding the grip button to grab it.

You can easily select or grab small or flat objects using precise selection - get close enough to the object for a dote pointer to appear and select the object with the trigger button or grab it with the grip button.

Pull the stick on the controller to the right to make the selection sphere bigger for selecting and grabbing multiple objects.

You can select multiple objects by holding the trigger button and touching objects one by one or drawing a line between them.

Also, holding down the non-dominant trigger button will allow you to keep adding or removing new objects to the selection one after the other.

Switching between interaction modes

Pull the stick on the controller to the very left to activate the ray interaction mode.

Or you can use your non-dominant controller to adjust the selection mode on the controller.

Ray mode

Ray mode allows you to select or grab objects that are far away.

Hover over an object and click on it with the trigger button to select it or hold the grip button to grab it.

You can move objects closer and further by shifting the stick forward and back.

You can hold the trigger button and touch objects with the Ray to select multiple objects.

When selecting objects, holding down the non-dominant trigger button will allow you to keep adding or removing new objects to the selection one after the other.

Deleting

To delete an object, grab it in any interaction mode and throw it away.

You can also delete objects via the Object Inspector - read about it here.

Duplication

While holding an object, press the trigger button to make a duplicate.

Hover over an object, press the non-dominant trigger button, and pull the duplicate of the object using the grip button. This allows you to make a duplicate and not move the original object.

You can duplicate and copy objects via the Object Inspector - read about it here.

Scale

In any interaction mode, you can scale an object by shifting the stick to the right or the left.

You can change object size and position via the Object Inspector - read about it here.

Also, you can use Gizmo for it.
