    Abstract: A three-dimensional preview of content can be generated and presented at an electronic device in a three-dimensional environment. The three-dimensional preview of content can be presented concurrently with a two-dimensional representation of the content in a content generation environment presented in the three-dimensional environment. While the three-dimensional preview of content is presented in the three-dimensional environment, one or more affordances can be provided for interacting with the one or more computer-generated virtual objects of the three-dimensional preview. The one or more affordances may be displayed with the three-dimensional preview of content in the three-dimensional environment. The three-dimensional preview of content may be presented on a three-dimensional tray and the one or more affordances may be presented in a control bar or other grouping of controls outside the perimeter of the tray and/or along the perimeter of the tray.

    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that updates state information for a portion of a user interface. For example, an example process may include obtaining a recording of an execution of an application within a three-dimensional (3D) environment. The recording may include 3D appearance information and state information for elements of the application at multiple instances in time. The process may further include presenting a user interface based on the recording where the user interface includes a visualization portion providing a visualization of the 3D appearance of the application based on the 3D appearance information and a state information portion. The process may further include receiving a selection of an element and identifying element-specific information corresponding to the element at a particular instance and updating the state information portion of the user interface based on the selection of the element and the element-specific state information.

    Abstract: An extended reality environment includes one or more virtual objects. A virtual object can be selected for manipulation by orienting a pointing device towards the virtual object and performing a selection input. In some embodiments, if the selection input is a first type of selection gesture received at the pointing device, the virtual object is selected for movement operations. In some embodiments, if the selection input is a second type of selection gesture received at the pointing device, the virtual object is selected for rotation operations. While the virtual object is selected for movement or rotation operations, the virtual object moves or rotates in accordance with the movement or rotation of the user's hand, respectively. In some embodiments, the virtual object has a first visual characteristic when the pointing device is pointing towards the virtual object and has a second visual characteristic when the virtual object is selected.

    Abstract: A computer-generated virtual object manipulator having one or more affordances for manipulating a computer-generated virtual object is disclosed. Selection of a virtual object can cause an object manipulator to be displayed over the virtual object. The object manipulator can include a cone-shaped single-axis translation affordance for each of one or more object axes, a disc-shaped single-axis scale affordance for each of the one or more object axes, an arc-shaped rotation affordance for rotation about each of the one or more object axes, and a center of object affordance for free space movement of the virtual object. The object manipulator can also include a slice-shaped two-axis translation affordance that can be displayed after hovering over an area in a particular plane.
