Function

You can define the outline, the position and the starting point of a variant in Halocline Desktop.

The outline is used to indicate the boundaries of the variant. This helps to better divide the shopfloor in 2D view and to clearly delimit the available space in VR.

With the position you also change the contents of your variant and can thus easily experiment with the rough layout of your shopfloor.

The starting point determines where you are in the store floor when you start VR with the selected variant.
