Abstract

Techniques for displaying a virtual object in an enhanced reality setting in accordance with a physical muting mode being active are described. In some examples, while the physical muting mode is active, a system obtains a first set of context data for one or more physical elements in a physical setting and causes display of a virtual object representing the one or more physical elements in a first position using at least a portion of the first set of context data. After the virtual object representing the one or more physical elements is displayed in the first position, the physical muting mode is deactivated. In response to detecting the deactivation of the physical muting mode, the system causes display of a transitional motion of the virtual object representing the one or more physical elements from the first position to a second position.
