This question must be so easy, but I can't figure out how to change this setting and couldn't remember it from any tutorial.

Right now when grabbing an atom in VR, I grab it until I press grabbing again.

How do I change this, so I let go off the atom the moment I stop grabbing? It happens far too often, that I somehow still grab something and run away with it, pulling it behind me.

Thanks in advance!

Use your second trigger on the controller ;)

You can also swap them:

Thanks! :)

I never noticed the function of the second trigger. Thanks! :D

One problem: my VAM always starts with SteamVR (although I use oculus!), so the "Swap Grab and Trigger" doesnt work. Do you know how I can start VAM via Oculus software? And even if SteamVR-Start seems good, pressing "Open Controller Bindings in Desktop Browser" just opens "http://localhost:8998/dashboard/controllerbinding.html", which gives an error, so I cant swap the bindings for VAM in steamVR either.

I hope you have a clue! :)

In the Oculus settings you can set Oculus as default VR runtime, obviously that makes only sense if you have Oculus hardware ;)

After than make sure to close Steam, then just run VaM.exe.

Otherwise you can probably access Controller Bindings in the SteamVR settings somewhere ;)
