Hi Wiso,

If you use a 'floating cursor' you can use svg as icons and swap them out by changing variables when you mouse over different elements.

Here are two examples:

Changing Hand Icons: https://p2vrtutorials.s3.ap-southeast-2 ... index.html (V6 build)

Changing Shape and Plane Icons: https://p2vrtutorials.s3.ap-southeast-2 ... index.html (V7 build)

For the replace hands and the replace icons I have 4 SVG files, 32px x 32px, arranged in a square enclosed in a container, 64px x 64px. In turn, that container is placed into another container 32px x 32px with masking enabled. Add a variable to contain the name of the icon, then some logic to move the 64px x 64px container so that the active icon is within the masked container.
