How can we improve the Oculus Rift platform?

← Oculus Rift S and Rift

Pin window to Touch controller

currently, desktop windows seem to be pinned to the real playspace area.
when playing shooters, this gets in the way :/

    Just copying the capabilities of stuff like DailyOVR or OVRdrop would be enough really.

    We really need option to pin i.e. twitch chat to the "wrist" while at the same time there would be normal pin for the other screens/windows' so one can i.e. adjust streaming software easily.

    Let's show a little more love to this suggestion. The concept works well for a certain program on SteamVR, but performance suffers because, well, SteamVR. Having the option natively so we can manage with Oculus games would be wonderful.

    This is a really cool idea. Maybe have it pin to hand, with a button on the window to collapse/expand it? Or minimize to dash?

    There are many streamers who use hacks for the Vive and Oculus Rift when using Steam VR but there is nothing for those of us using the Oculus game center. Those of us who stream need to keep track of our chat's without the chat imposing itself into the game or creative (quill) space. Being able to flip ones wrist to show the pinned window would be perfect as it is out of the way until one needs to view the window.

    Also, being able to tune the window while in whatever game one is playing is a must. Tuning the scale, opacity, relative locations, crop, and tint.

    Thank you for listening.

    pretty much pin any window to any position relative to any hand, and make it a single sided rectangle so we can attach it backwards to not interrupt any game, but allowing us to turn our wrists to check the back of the rectangle and see the content

    I totally agree with the wrist idea! ****, just give us Aki's wrist computer from FF: Spirits Within!

    I just pin the window directly above my head and look up if I want to see it.

    I would love for oculus to make a notification api that renders on the inside of your wrist.
