Overview

The Move Object Resource allows you (the author) to move a Scene object to a specified anchor. This can be used to move objects between fixed locations around the Scene.

If you want to move a Character in the environment, then the appropriate resource is Navigate To.

If you want the learner to move an object themselves, then the appropriate Resource is Place or Grasp.

Anchor

(found after choosing a Position option)

Specifies the anchor to which the object will be moved.

Fixed and Relative Position: Specifies the position of the anchor.

This position can be one of two types: Fixed Position or Relative Position.

The Relative Position setting allows the author to configure the angle, distance, and elevation of the object, as well as its rotation.

Attach to Anchor

When this box is checked, it will connect the object to the actual anchor and is typically used in situations where the anchor moves (example: the anchor is on a vehicle). Note for Assemblers: It will attach to anchor whether or not there's an attachable, but if there are attachables, it will use the attachable to attach.
