Aspects of the subject disclosure are directed towards providing feedback to users of multi-user system that has biometric recognition capabilities, so that a user knows whether the system has correctly associated the user with his or her identity. The feedback may include a display of a current camera view, along with visible identity information that is associated with each user in the view. The feedback may include per-user icons (e.g., tiles, thumbnail images and so on) by which a user visually confirms that he or she is correctly recognized. Any misrecognition may be detected via the feedback and corrected. Feedback may convey other information, such as the current interaction state/capabilities of a user.

A direct manipulation user interface provides a user with a means to interact with control points associated with smart objects to create and modify complex 3D graphic objects. The direct manipulation user interface includes a precision control mechanism that enables a user to specify precise measurements for a transformation through the user's interaction with a control point. The direct manipulation user interface also includes a history bar that enables a user to scroll back to a previous stage in the design process and to undo a sequence of transformations through the user's interaction with the history bar.
