An Inspector appears when you click the object it is anchored to.  Inspectors must be anchored to something in the scene (a scene anchor or a scene object.) Once the media item appears, it will automatically play for the duration of the media.

The Inspector is persistent and when the learner views the message and clicks “OK” the Inspector remains on the object and can be clicked on again.

To stop the Inspector, use a Deactivate Resource or an End Script Resource.

Position of Screen Media Inspector

The screen does its best to get out of the way and position itself so you can see it. Inspectors start above the object, then may move some more if it detects any collisions.
