Abstract
In one embodiment, a client system receives a request to access a user interface element in a virtual reality environment for an application and generates the user interface element in the virtual reality environment. The user interface element at the generated position occludes a portion of the application. The client system detects an input to move the user interface element from one position in the virtual reality environment to another position in the virtual reality environment relative to a display region of the application and stores position data associated with the other position of the virtual reality environment in a position database. The position data is associated with the application. The client system receives another request to access the user interface element in the virtual reality environment for the application and generates the user interface element in the virtual reality environment based on the position data associated with the application.
