Change from super-hands to raycaster

[andreeapav09]

Hi,

I'm developing a VR application on an Oculus Quest 2 and I'm having trouble coming with a script to change between super-hands controls and ray-caster mode by pressing a button.

What should be a starting point to combine them together?

I'm trying to use both the super-hands and the following in the same scene:

Hello, I know this question is old but I'm developing a game and I've managed to change between super-hands and the controller with raycaster. Basically I use javascript to delete the super-hands entity and I create a new one that has the raycaster. This is an example with the right hand:

// First delete the super-hands entity
document.getElementById("rightHand").remove();

// Then create a new entity with the raycaster
var controller = document.createElement("a-entity");
controller.setAttribute("raycaster", "objects: .raycastable; lineColor: #4103fc; lineOpacity: 1");
controller.setAttribute("laser-controls", "hand: right");
controller.setAttribute("id", "rightHand");  
document.getElementById("rig").appendChild(controller);

Then you can have an event triggered when a button on the quest is pressed that executes that code and you should be good to go.
