Hello! I need the possibility to start directly the Shapespark scene in VR. How is that possible? Is there something like #autoplay for VR available?
Another question, I have problems with VR and IPhones, the Shapespark scene is opening, I touch on VR. The requester opens and asks for “Acces to Motion and Orientation” I tap “Allow” but it is not working any more. It used to work, though…
WebXR browser API that Shapespark uses requires user gesture to enter the VR mode. A gesture is a button click or a key press, the API doesn’t allow websites to enter VR mode automatically.
Does the IPhone problem happen for a scene hosted on Shapespark server or self-hosted? Recently we added a workaround for a new bug in Safari that prevents entering a VR mode, but the fix is not yet pushed to the desktop app, so self-hosted scenes are still affected by the bug (see this post).
hi @jan
I have a question, I want to make with a click on a button of an external interface to switch to VR mode.
Is it possible to access the VR mode from the API?
There is no API function for this. Perhaps emalating a click in the viewer VR button with JavaScript .click() method would work.
