    Hi - i have upgraded to the XR plug in and everything seems to be ok except I can't toggle between 2d screens and VR. This used to be pretty simple with the old system:
    Code (CSharp):
    1.  public void Start()
    2.  
    3.     {
    4.  
    5.         StartCoroutine(ActivatorVR("none"));
    6.  
    7.     }
    8.     public IEnumerator ActivatorVR(string YesVR)
    9.  
    10.     {
    11.  
    12.         XRSettings.LoadDeviceByName(YesVR);
    13.  
    14.         yield return null;
    15.  
    16.         XRSettings.enabled = true;
    17.  
    18.     }
