Manipulation handler

The SimpleManipulationHandler script allows for an object to be made movable, scalable, and rotatable using one or two hands.

How to use the SimpleManipulationHandler class

Follow the next steps in order to create a SimpleManipulationHandler from scratch

• Add the object you want to interact with in your scene
• Add the SimpleManipulationHandler to it
• [Optional] Add a collider (a BoxCollider for example). If the collider doesn't exist it the program will try to find it on any of its children, if it's not found then a default one will be created
• [Optional] Add a StaticBody3D

You can now interact with the object

Adding physics

Objects with the SimpleManipulationHandler script can have physics applied to them. You just need to follow the steps above but instead of adding a StaticBody3D, replace it with a RigidBody3D

Constraints

By default the SimpleManipulationHandler will allow the user to move, rotate and scale the target object. Constraints can be added to avoid manipulations of these operations:

• ConstraintPosX, ConstraintPosY, ConstraintPosZ will constraint the movement in any of the 3 axis
• ConstraintRotX, ConstraintRotY, ConstraintRotZ will constraint the rotation in any of the 3 axis
• ConstraintScaleX, ConstraintScaleY, ConstraintScaleZ will constraint the scale in any of the 3 axis

Events

The SimpleManipulationHandler class has the next events:

• ManipulationStarted: fired when the object starts being manipulated
• ManipulationEnded: fired when the object end being manipulated

Adding Sounds

Sounds can be added to the SimpleManipulationHandler adding the class ManipulationHandlerSoundFeedbackComponent. You can add sounds to any of the events mentioned above
