Symptoms:
- I am having difficulty selecting my content / the environment when using Unity Mars' 'Simulation view'
- In 'Simulation view', I am clicking on my content, but it is not being selected. If the content is over simulated environment objects, those are being selected instead.
- I am trying to adjust objects in the simulated environment, but cannot select them. I can only select my content, not the environment.
Cause:
Because of how Unity MARS composites your simulated content on top of the simulated environment, mirroring the compositing that occurs on real AR devices, one of these layers will be active, while the other is in a 'rendering-only' mode and cannot be selected.
Resolution:
Only the simulated environment or the simulated content are selectable at one time, not both simultaneously.
To switch which is selectable in 'Simulation view', use the overflow menu (three vertical dots) in the toolbar at the top of the view, and change the ‘Select Type’ dropdown.
If the ‘Content’ option is selected on this dropdown menu, you will not be able to select environment objects, and vice versa.
