eDrawingsButtonFunctionalityResets the view and model.Scales/rotates the component. When you select the component (button 4)and hold down button 3, the scale or rotation is continuous. Previously youhad to click multiple times to scale or rotate.• Places the component.• Changes the scale.• Rotates the component.When the component is not selected, button 3 teleports you to the locationthat you are pointing to with the dominant hand controller.Selects the component with a single click. You can focus on manipulating thecomponent with button 3 without holding down button 4 simultaneously. Ifyou click button 4 again, the component returns to its original position.Previously you had to hold down button 4 to keep the component selected.Custom Floor and Sky EnvironmentsYou can add image files to create custom floor and sky environments in VR. Requirementsinclude:• Floor. Must be .png or .jpg files.• Sky. Equirectangular .png or .jpg files. Skies must be equirectangular. Images musthave an aspect ratio of 2:1. Cube maps are not supported.To add image files for custom floors and skies, click VR Options (if you have a VRmodel open) or Tools > VR Options.

Using HTC VIVE and VIVE Pro VR headsets, you can walk around and through your
model in VR. You can examine each part in assemblies and take apart assemblies one
part at a time.
Computers with Microsoft Windows ® 10 1709 and later using Valve SteamVR support
VR in eDrawings.
Controller Interaction
The controller supports additional functionality when you interact with models.
Button
