Some examples of the disclosure are directed to object manipulators and associated processes for manipulating an object representation in a three-dimensional environment. The object representation may correspond to a scan of a real-world object in a real-world environment. The object manipulators may include an object cleanup manipulator and a text annotation manipulator. The object cleanup manipulator may be selectable to display one or more control affordances providing functionality for selectively removing portions of the object representation in the three-dimensional environment and/or selectively adjusting one or more parameters of the object representation in the three-dimensional environment. The text annotation manipulator may be selectable to display one or more control affordances providing functionality for selectively generating one or more text labels in the three-dimensional environment. The one or more text labels may be associated with the object representation in the three-dimensional environment.

A digital assistant may be used with a computer-generated environment. In some embodiments, a digital assistant is invoked and/or terminated via user input. In some embodiments, the digital assistant is displaying in a computer-generated environment. In some embodiments, the digital assistant may be used to interact with objects in a computer-generated environment. Devices, methods, and graphical user interfaces for a digital assistant provide an improved user experience for computer-generated environments.

Devices and methods for digital assistant

Visual programming provides an efficient and intuitive user experience in an enhanced reality computer-generated environment. In some embodiments, a graphical representation of a programming structure is displayed in a computer-generated environment, and various interactions with the graphical representation of the programming structure are provided to define behavior of objects in a computer-generated environment. In some embodiments, the behavior of the object is defined by a trigger and an action. In some embodiments, the various interactions include adding one or more graphical representations of programming objects to the graphical representation of the programming structure, removing one or more graphical representations of programming objects from the graphical representation of the programming structure or from the computer-generated environment, and/or previewing the behavior defined by the graphical representation of the programming structure.

Devices and methods for visual programming

In some implementations, a method includes obtaining a set of preselected attribute values for an objective-effectuator. In some implementations, the method includes while displaying a user interface including a plurality of configuration control affordances provided to effect configuration of one or more attributes characterizing the objective-effectuator, in response to receiving an input indicative of manipulation of a first configuration control affordance, setting a corresponding first attribute to a particular preselected attribute value, and modifying display of the plurality of configuration control affordances in order to change the number of the plurality of configuration control affordances displayed. In some implementations, the method includes configuring the objective-effectuator at least based on the particular preselected attribute value of the first attribute. In some implementations, the objective-effectuator is associated with a set of predefined actions.
