Methods

TryGetClosestCollider(IXRInteractable, Vector3, out DistanceInfo)

Calculates the closest Interactable's Collider to the given location (based on the Collider Transform position). The Collider volume and surface are not considered for calculation, use TryGetClosestPointOnCollider(IXRInteractable, Vector3, out DistanceInfo) in this case.

Declaration
public static bool TryGetClosestCollider(IXRInteractable interactable, Vector3 position, out DistanceInfo distanceInfo)
Parameters
Type Name Description
IXRInteractable interactable

Interactable to find the closest Collider position.
Vector3 position

Location in world space to calculate the closest Collider position.
DistanceInfo distanceInfo

If true is returned, distanceInfo will contain the closest Collider, its position (in world space) and its distance squared to the given location.
Returns
Type Description
Boolean

Returns true if the closest Collider can be computed, for this the interactable must have at least one active and enabled Collider. Otherwise, returns false.
Remarks

Only active and enabled non-trigger colliders are used in the calculation.

TryGetClosestPointOnCollider(IXRInteractable, Vector3, out DistanceInfo)

Calculates the point on the Interactable's Colliders that is closest to the given location (based on the Collider volume and surface).

Declaration
public static bool TryGetClosestPointOnCollider(IXRInteractable interactable, Vector3 position, out DistanceInfo distanceInfo)
Parameters
Type Name Description
IXRInteractable interactable

Interactable to find the closest point.
Vector3 position

Location in world space to calculate the closest point.
DistanceInfo distanceInfo

If true is returned, distanceInfo will contain the point (in world space) on the Collider that is closest to the given location, its distance squared, and the Collider that contains the point. If the given location is in the Collider, the closest point will be inside. Otherwise, the closest point will be on the surface of the Collider.
Returns
Type Description
Boolean

Returns true if the closest point can be computed, for this the interactable must have at least one active and enabled Collider. Otherwise, returns false.
Remarks

Only active and enabled non-trigger colliders are used in the calculation. The colliders can only be a BoxCollider, SphereCollider, CapsuleCollider, or convex MeshCollider.
