Select Tool - MARUI-PlugIn/BlenderXR GitHub Wiki

The Select Tool allows you to quickly select objects or components.

Note that you can still select objects with other tools such as the Transform Tool or Extrude Tool activated. However, the select tool may make it easier to select several objects or components at the same time.

Raycast and proximity selection modes

BlenderXR offers two different approaches to selecting objects or components: "raycast" and "proximity".

In Raycast Selection Mode, objects are selected by casting an invisible ray from your eye over the tip of your controller and into space. The first object that intersects with the ray will be selected. This is similar to working with a mouse. When in Raycast Selection Mode, you can use a selection rectangle by dragging without releasing the trigger button.

In Proximity Selection Mode, objects are selected by dragging with the controller trigger and drawing a 3D bounding box. Any objects lying within this 3D volume will be selected. Note that in Proximity Selection Mode, the only function of clicking with the trigger is to clear the current selection (deselect all).

Show Mouse

In the Selection Tool Options, you can choose the display the position of the mouse cursor on your screen in VR. This allows you to use your mouse in VR.
