3.8 Caliper

In this section, we want to get familiar with the caliper and its measuring tool. Bring the caliper into the scene using the Tool Spawner. Place it on the table.

In the next step, we want to add the measurement target to the scene, where the caliper will be applied. To do this, use the Tool Spawner again and click on "Measured Length" under Helpers. Place the measurement target as shown.

With the measuring tape still selected, you can set the desired measurement length in the Details Panel under Default. Use the Scale parameter to adjust the displayed scale of the measuring tape.

Activate the measuring tape by creating a new section with a task in the Task List Editor. Assign the "Measured Length" helper to this task to make it active during that section.

When you now test the section in VR, pick up the caliper. To open or close the caliper jaws, use the thumbstick by moving it up or down.
