User Preferences / VR2 Tab
“Leap Motion” specific options.
As of the 1.21.0.4 update the Leap Motion dll was updated to the Gemini compatible version which brings better tracking. If you are using Leap Motion, please update to
Gemini.
"Enabled" New with 1.22. A user preference to enable Leap Motion system. Note this preference is off by default to try to fix issue when VaM is firewalled which makes the plugin consume a lot of system resources. This option also allows those with Leap to disable it in a manner that is remembered on reload.
“Pinch Grab” Toggles the ability to pinch grab atom nodes and clothing. This does not work as a selection tool. When grabbing the atom is temporarily Parent Linked to the leap motion hands.
”Left Enabled” Displays the left hand choice as selected in the “VR Hands” section.
”Right Enabled” Displays the right hand choice as selected in the “VR Hands” section.
These two options are also toggled from the Base UI by the “Toggle Leap Motion Hands” Icon.
