Automatically positioning objects in three-dimensional space utilizing a widget

Abstract:

In a method, one or more processing devices perform operations. Such operations include receiving a signal to display a widget for one or more objects displayed in virtual space. The operations further include computing a bounding box for the one or more objects, the bounding box including a bottom section having a set of corners. The operations further include determining, from among the set of corners, a first corner and a second corner that are, respectively, closest and second closest to a virtual camera position. The operations further include generating the widget based on the bounding box, the first corner, and the second corner. The widget includes a first axis handle connected to a second axis handle at the first corner and further connected to a third axis handle at the second corner. The operations further include causing display of the widget along with the one or more objects.
