Display screen or portion thereof with animated graphical user interface

Display screen or portion thereof showing a graphical user interface

In some embodiments, a computer system selectively recenters virtual content to a viewpoint of a user, in the presence of physical or virtual obstacles, and/or automatically recenters one or more virtual objects in response to the display generation component changing state, selectively recenters content associated with a communication session between multiple users in response detected user input, changes the visual prominence of content included in virtual objects based on viewpoint and/or based on a detected user attention of a user, modifies visual prominence of one or more virtual objects to resolve apparent obscuring of the one or more virtual objects, modifies visual prominence based on user viewpoint relative to virtual objects, concurrently modifies visual prominence based various types of user interaction, and/or changes an amount of visual impact of an environmental effect in response to detected user input.

Methods for displaying and repositioning objects in an environment

A computer system displays a first application user interface at a first location in a three-dimensional environment. While displaying the first application user interface at the first location in the three-dimensional environment, the computer system detects, at a first time, a first input corresponding to a request to close the first application user interface. In response to detecting the first input corresponding to a request to close the first application user interface: the computer system closes the first application user interface, including ceasing to display the first application user interface in the three-dimensional environment; and, in accordance with a determination that respective criteria are met, the computer system displays a home menu user interface at a respective home menu position that is determined based on the first location of the first application user interface in the three-dimensional environment.

Devices, methods, and graphical user interfaces for interacting with window controls in three-dimensional environments

In one implementation, a method of activating a user interface element is performed at a device including an input device, an eye tracker, a display, one or more processors, and non-transitory memory. The method includes displaying, on the display, a plurality of user interface elements and receiving, via the input device, a user input corresponding to an input location. The method includes determining, using the eye tracker, a gaze location. The method includes, in response to determining that the input location is at least a threshold distance from the gaze location, activating a first user interface element at the gaze location and, in response to determining that it is not, activating a second user interface element at the input location.

Methods and systems for changing a display based on user input and gaze

In some embodiments, an electronic device automatically updates the orientation of a virtual object in a three-dimensional environment based on a viewpoint of a user in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, an electronic device automatically updates the orientation of a virtual object in a three-dimensional environment based on viewpoints of a plurality of users in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, the electronic device modifies an appearance of a real object that is between a virtual object and the viewpoint of a user in a three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, the electronic device automatically selects a location for a user in a three-dimensional environment that includes one or more virtual objects and/or other users.

Methods for manipulating objects in an environment

A computer system detects a gaze input directed to a region in an environment and, while detecting the gaze input, detects a touch input. In response, the computer system displays a focus indicator at a location corresponding to the region. The computer system detects a continuation of the touch input that includes movement of the touch input along an input surface while being maintained on the input surface. In response, the computer system moves the focus indicator in accordance with the movement of the touch input: within a user interface of an application, if the movement corresponds to a request to move the focus indicator within the user interface; and within the user interface without moving the focus indicator outside of the boundary of the user interface, if the movement corresponds to a request to move the focus indicator outside of a boundary of the user interface.

Devices, methods, and graphical user interfaces for interacting with three-dimensional environments

In some embodiments, an electronic device enhances interactions with virtual objects in a three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, an electronic device enhances interactions with selectable user interface elements. In some embodiments, an electronic device enhances interactions with slider user interface elements. In some embodiments, an electronic device moves virtual objects in a three-dimensional environment and facilitates accessing actions associated with virtual objects.

Methods for interacting with virtual controls and/or an affordance for moving virtual objects in virtual environments

In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates cursor interactions in different regions in a three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates cursor interactions in content. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates cursor movement. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates interaction with multiple input devices. In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates cursor movement based on movement of a hand of a user of the computer system and a location of a gaze of the user in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates cursor selection and scrolling of content in the three-dimensional environment.

Methods for cursor-based interactions with an electronic device

A method is performed at an electronic device including one or more processors, a non-transitory memory, and a display. The method includes obtaining a first volumetric object associated with a first content region. The first content region is associated with a first tab. The method includes generating a first volumetric representation of the first volumetric object based on a function of the first tab. The first volumetric representation is displayable within the first tab. The method includes concurrently displaying, on the display, the first content region and the first volumetric representation within the first tab. In some implementations, the method includes changing a view of the first volumetric representation, such as rotating the first volumetric representation or according to a positional change to the electronic device. In some implementations, the method includes generating a plurality of volumetric representations and classifying the plurality of volumetric representations.
