This article talks about ways to discover tags, rules that apply to them and how to effectively manage tags in Cintoo VR Experience application.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Press the VR tools controller thumbstick to open the VR tools menu.
To activate tags display, click with the navigation controller trigger button on the Tags.
There are two ways of exploring Tags. They could be performed independently or in a combination, depending on the goals.
By performing a tag search
Open the Resources panel with a click on the top button on the navigation controller and go to the Tags panel:
For each tag there are icons available:
- go to the closest scan view
/
- Activate/deactivate tag
- tag details
- pending tag indication
Click on the search bar and type the needed name on a virtual keyboard (could be moved in the viewport by dragging).
Wait for the result to be displayed and scroll the results by pushing and pulling the navigation controller thumbstick:
Removing the search keyword by clicking on the red cross. It will clear the search bar but not the search results. After that it’s possible to add more search results using different keywords, meaning that the accumulation of tags from different search requests is possible.
Remove Tags selection button below the search bar clears the list and allows you to start a completely new search.
By navigating in the viewport
Make sure the Tags selection is colored green.
Move between scan locations or teleport to discover tags. Each time you change a location, tags that are located at a distance inferior to 7.5m are displayed and accumulated both in the viewport and in the Tags panel list.
Tags are indicated by a bounding box and a name when hovering over them:
By clicking on the tag name, the dialogue box with all the tag details opens, where metadata filtering is possible. Attach the window on top of the tag with Push window button.
Note: accumulation of tags both in viewport and Tags panel list is happening no matter which tag discovery method is used. Tag discovery methods could be used in a combination.
Tags deactivation
Deactivating the Tags button in the VR tools menu removes all the tags from the viewport and Tags panel list and makes tags discovery and search no longer activated.
Same happens if you go from VR mode to Desktop mode.
