    Hi,

    When in stationary mode, long-pressing the home button to recenter works.
    But when in guardian mode, the little spinner appears, but the scene isn't recentered like you'd expect.

    Is this a bug? All games I tested do this properly.
    Is there a workaround? Can I detect when the user triggers a recenter and manually reset things?

    Using OpenXR, haven't tried the Oculus plugin.

    Thanks!

    If other games do have proper functionality make a bug report for it

    fwiw, the OpenXR spec itself provides no mechanism for triggering recentering. It was the wish of the runtimes that it is handled at the system level only.

    If the system level logic isn't sufficient for you - I think the only option is to implement the logic yourself (ie: capture the initial camera pose, and then apply the inverse delta of that transform to your camera's parent upon triggering recentering)

    Thanks, but I'm not sure you understood correctly. I do not wish to trigger it from my game, I want the game to respond when the user triggers the recenter with the device. When the user wishes to recenter and longpresses the button, the game (ie Unity) should recenter, just like it does in a stationary boundary, and just like the device UI does.

    If I'm supposed to do this manually, how can I listen for the "recenter requested" event?
