    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to techniques for providing tangibility visualization of virtual objects within a computer-generated reality (CGR) environment, such as a CGR environment based on virtual reality and/or a CGR environment based on mixed reality. A visual feedback indicating tangibility is provided for a virtual object within a CGR environment that does not correspond to a real, tangible object in the real environment. A visual feedback indicating tangibility is not provided for a virtual representation of a real object within a CGR environment that corresponds to a real, tangible object in the real environment.

    Abstract: In an exemplary process, a computer-generated reality environment comprising a virtual object is presented and user movement that occurs in a physical environment is detected. In response to determining that the detected user movement is toward the virtual object and that the virtual object obstructs a real object from the physical environment, a determination is made whether the detected user movement is directed to the virtual object or the real object. In accordance with a determination that the detected user movement is directed to the real object, a visual appearance of the virtual object is modified, where modifying the visual appearance of the virtual object comprises displaying presenting at least a portion of the real object. In accordance with a determination that the detected user movement is directed to the virtual object, the presentation of the virtual object is maintained to obstruct the real object.
