Grabbing techniques

When we use a direct selection then we can interpret the moment of selection also as the statement to grab object. In the case of two following selection techniques we must use some signal to confirm the grasp of object. With grabbed object we have a possibility to manipulate it in three ways:

Figure 4: Situation before object seizing using object transfer method.

Figure 5: Situation after object seizing. Object and scene were transfered close to users hand.

Figure 6: Situation before object seizing using hand transfer method.

Figure 7: Situation after object seizing. Users hand moves close to object and manipulation is done there.
