The construction of virtual reality environments can be made more efficient with enhancements directed to the sizing of objects to be utilized in the construction of virtual reality environments, enhancements directed to the simultaneous display of multiple thumbnails, or other like indicators, of virtual reality environments being constructed, enhancements directed to controlling the positioning of a view of a virtual reality environment, enhancements directed to conceptualizing the virtual reality environment as perceived through different types of three-dimensional presentational hardware, and enhancements directed to the exchange of objects between multiple virtual reality environments being constructed.

Efficiency enhancements to construction of virtual reality environments

Systems and methods are provided for selectively controlling a carry mode for holograms presented in mixed-reality environments and for providing leashing buffers for the holograms. The carry mode enables holograms to be functionally moved within a single mixed-reality environment, and out into one or more different mixed-reality environments. The carry mode can be automatically applied to holograms created within the mixed-reality environment. The carry mode can also be applied responsive to user input applied to world-locked holograms, which triggers a switch from the world-locked mode to the carry mode from. Holograms can also be leashed for persistently displaying holograms associated with or linked to a user in the mixed-reality environment to provide the user increased accessibility to the hologram while navigating within and without a particular mixed-reality environment. Selectable options are presented with a hologram in carry mode for switching from the carry mode to the world-locked mode.
