Abstract
An example method of presenting, via an artificial-reality headset, a user interface that includes a selectable user interface element is described. The method includes that while a representation of a hand of a user is within an indirect-control threshold distance of the user interface, a focus selector is projected within the user interface based on a position of the representation of the hand of the user. The example method also includes that upon determining that the representation of the hand of the user has moved within a direct-touch threshold distance of the user interface, ceasing to display the focus selector within the user interface and allowing the representation of the hand of the user to interact directly with the selectable user interface element.
