What are touch controls?

Touch controls allow you to interact with system screens by directly touching them with your finger, like a virtual touchscreen. You can also use controllers to interact with system screens when touch controls are on.

Note: Touch controls are currently available as a beta feature on VIVE XR Elite.

Here's how to enable touch controls:

From Home, select Settings.
Select Advanced > Beta features.
Turn on Touch controls.
If you have a screen open—such as the system dashboard's Library or Settings screen—it will appear up close in front of you.

Here's how to use touch controls:

With your finger:

Tap an item to select it.
Swipe up or down to scroll the screen.

With a controller:

Move the cursor to an item you want to select and then press the trigger.
Press and hold the trigger and then move your controller up or down to scroll the screen.
To move the system dashboard, first aim the beam at the horizontal bar below the dashboard and then press and hold the trigger. When the bar turns blue, move your controller to drag the dashboard to your desired location and then release the trigger.
