Merging computer-generated objects

An electronic device comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a non-transitory memory;
• a display;
• an extremity tracker;
• and
• one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the non-transitory memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• displaying, on the display, a plurality of computer-generated objects, including a first computer-generated object at a first position within an XR environment, and a second computer-generated object at a second position within the XR environment, wherein the first computer-generated object corresponds to a first user interface element that includes a first set of controls for modifying a content item;
• while displaying the plurality of computer-generated objects, obtaining extremity tracking data from the extremity tracker, wherein the extremity tracking data indicates a movement from the first position within the XR environment to a third position within the XR environment;
• moving the first computer-generated object from the first position to the third position within the XR environment based on the extremity tracking data;
• and
• in response to moving the first computer-generated object to the third position, in accordance with a determination that the third position satisfies a proximity threshold with respect to the second position:
• merging the first computer-generated object with the second computer-generated object in order to generate a third computer-generated object for modifying the content item;
• and
• displaying, on the display, the third computer-generated object within the XR environment.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which, when executed by an electronic device with one or more processors, a display, and an extremity tracker, cause the electronic device to:

• display, on the display, a plurality of computer-generated objects, including a first computer-generated object at a first position within an XR environment, and a second computer-generated object at a second position within the XR environment, wherein the first computer-generated object corresponds to a first user interface element that includes a first set of controls for modifying a content item;
• while displaying the plurality of computer-generated objects, obtain extremity tracking data from the extremity tracker, wherein the extremity tracking data indicates a movement from the first position within the XR environment to a third position within the XR environment;
• move the first computer-generated object from the first position to the third position within the XR environment based on the extremity tracking data;
• and
• in response to moving the first computer-generated object to the third position, in accordance with a determination that the third position satisfies a proximity threshold with respect to the second position:
• merge the first computer-generated object with the second computer-generated object in order to generate a third computer-generated object for modifying the content item;
• and
• display, on the display, the third computer-generated object within the XR environment.
