Abstract
The subject technology detects a first gesture and a second gesture, each gesture corresponding to an open trigger finger gesture. The subject technology detects a third gesture and a fourth gesture, each gesture corresponding to a closed trigger finger gesture. The subject technology, selects a first virtual object in a first scene. The subject technology detects a first location and a first position of a first representation of a first finger from the third gesture and a second location and a second position of a second representation of a second finger from the fourth gesture. The subject technology detects a first change in the first location and the first position and a second change in the second location and the second position. The subject technology modifies a set of dimensions of the first virtual object to a different set of dimensions.
