surface tracking jumping

When I tap on the screen the surface tracker seems to reset which makes the models on the jump around.

Any ideas what could be causing this or is that how it was intended?

Thanks!

    Hey Ashley,

    Are you using a template with the models? How did you set up their tracking?

    Cheers,

    Hi,

    I started from scratch. 

    The only thing I have is a model and the device tracking enabled on the camera. 

    The model is not a child of the camera either.

    Thanks

    The default behavior of Surface Tracking is to reset the objects position to where the surface was tapped. This allows the users to tap to place the object at a new location. Is this what you are seeing?

    Yeah it seems so.
    Is there any way to disable it?
    I want to be able to interact with the object while it's static in the world space.

    Hi Ashley,

    Here you can find all of the interactions you can enable/disable with the Manipulation component.

    In the end I fixed it by using the the touch blocking with :

    "global.touchSystem.touchBlocking = true"
     
    I think adding the manipulation components don't fix this because it's wherever the surface is tapped. I couldn't seem to add a manipulation component to since it's generated by lens studio and it isn't a scene object. I could be missing something though.
    It was actually something I thought was wrong with a few of the lenses I'm working on so it was great to find.

    Thanks for the quick replies :)
