Abstract
A computer system with a display generation component and one or more input devices displays a representation of a physical object that has a first respective object property and a virtual object that does not spatially overlap with the physical object. The system moves the virtual object based on movement of an input. If the movement of the input corresponds to a request to move the virtual object to a physical space that is not occupied by a physical object, the system moves the virtual object by a first amount. If the movement of the first input corresponds to a request to move the virtual object to a physical space that at least partially overlaps with the first physical object, the system moves the virtual object by a second amount, less than the first amount.
