Abstract

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media containing instructions for moving virtual content between virtual planes in three-dimensional space are provided. In one implementation, the wearable extended reality appliance may present a virtual object at a first location on a first virtual plane; intraplanar input signals may be received for causing the virtual object to move to a second location on the first virtual plane, and in response the wearable extended reality appliance may virtually display an intraplanar movement of the virtual object from the first location to the second location; and interplanar input signals may be received for causing the virtual object to move to a third location on a second virtual plane, while the virtual object is in the second location, and in response the wearable extended reality appliance may virtually display an interplanar movement of the virtual object from the second location to the third location.
