    Dear Unity Community,

    in the last weeks I´ve got a problem which won´t let me continue my project.
    I have a cuboid which is saved in Vuforia database and loaded in unity (Multi-Target + AR Camera).
    I´d like to make the cuboid work as a room, which allow me to place 3D objects inside. Currently I am not able to lay some room over the cuboid. The result is, that the cuboid is always been seen and sometimes it hides other 3D objects. I´ve made some investigation and found something on the net. Here is a perfect example on how to create a room, which is built inside the cube:

    As you can see, the cuboid is not seen, because another layer is displayed over the cuboid.And here you can see a screenshot of my current project:
    https://prnt.sc/om22ouI am using Unity 2019.1.10f + Vuforia 8.3. When I try to create a box, it just create a wall where i can not look through.I hope someone can help me out. That would be great.Thanks in advance and best regardsSarkis

    Hi,

    In order to achieve the desired outcome you will need to play with occlusion. You will need to deactivate the MeshRenderer on the Multitarget->childtargets. ( ex. cube.left,cube.right, cube.etc, preferably through a script.

    In addition in my testing (using the Vuforia Core Samples) I noticed that after tracking is lost and re-established the Meshrenderer for the childtargets is being reactivated. Don't know if this happens only with the Core samples but the logic for your script should be done in accordance to the status of the tracking to avoid this kind of small hiccups.

    Good luck!
