Question Cube misformed after grab

Hi there,

I'm 99% sure that this is a very nooby question, but since I can't seem to find the setting that's causing this, I just decided to post it anyway.

I have a cube with XR Grab Interactable on it. When grabbing (XR Rig), the cube get's misformed. Any ideas?

Check your transform hierarchy. Some transform probably has a non uniform scale (meaning that scale x,y,z are not all equal). As a rule of thumb I would recommend that you keep all transform scale == Vector3.one and only scale the actual visual object to whatever you need. Then, add an empty transform as a sibling of the visual object to where you can parent grabbed objects without the need to mess with the scale

 

Hi, I have the same problem, yes it was a problem of non-uniform axes, in my case I solved it by setting only the collider (in my case a capsule) of the player to the desired height hiding the actual mesh leaving it at 1.1 ,1 and always moving the "camera look" to the same height, now being a total beginner I would like to know one thing....my test game is in first person and the player is actually hidden....but just in case in which I need a player with its mesh visible and the axes are not uniform as in the case of a human figure for example, how can I avoid the problem of deformation of the object taken on the Y axis?
Sorry in advance if my English is not perfect...

 

A scale of (1,1,1) does not mean that the actual dimensions of whatever object you’re applying it to will look like a box. Models have their intrinsic size and keep said intrinsic size if the scale is (1,1,1).

That said, if you add a humanoid character model, you’ll want to keep the scale at (1,1,1) or at least uniform so „it looks right”. Don’t worry too much about it until you add an actual character model.. everything will make sense then

 

hello, thank you very much for the answer, eh I still don't know many things

 

Thanks a lot! Removing parent did the trick.

 

Hi,
I have the same problem and I found out that if all the parents are scale (1,1,1), the problem would be solve. The object with the component XR Grab Interactable don't have to be scale (1,1,1). The misformed thing is actually mesh, not the object. I still wonder the cause of this problem, let me know if anyone know the answer, thanks
