A method includes determining a first gaze position within a content manipulation region based on eye tracking data from an eye tracker. The method includes determining a selection point associated with a physical surface, based on spatial selector data from a spatial selector tracker. The method includes displaying a computer-generated representation of a trackpad on the physical surface, based on the first gaze position and the selection point. In some implementations, a method includes displaying a user interface including a plurality of content manipulation regions, a plurality of affordances respectively associated with the plurality of content manipulation regions, and a computer-generated representation of a trackpad. The method includes detecting, via a spatial selector tracker, an input directed to a first affordance associated with a first content manipulation region. The method includes associating the computer-generated representation of the trackpad with the first content manipulation region, based on the input.
A method comprising:
An electronic device comprising:
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, an eye tracker, a spatial selector tracker, and a display, cause the electronic device to:
