Training Interface Tour

Once your training loads, you’ll see several key elements on screen. Here’s what each one does.

​

Top Ribbon Bar

At the very top of the screen, you’ll find: Altoura Logo — Displayed on the left side of the ribbon Training Name — The name of your current training, along with your organization badge Profile Menu — A circular avatar on the right side showing your initials or profile photo. Click it to open a dropdown with:

• Your Profile — Your name, email, and profile photo are displayed at the top of the dropdown. Click the small pen icon on your avatar to upload a new profile photo. A crop dialog lets you adjust the image before saving. Your photo persists across sessions and is visible to other users in shared trainings.
• Themes — Switch the app appearance:
  • Light — Bright background with dark text
  • Dark — Dark background with light text
  • System — Automatically matches your device’s system theme preference. Your theme choice is saved locally and persists across sessions.
• Pair Device — Connect an HMD device (such as HoloLens, Meta Quest, or HTC Vive) to your training
• Settings — Open the Settings modal to toggle features and adjust volume
• Logout — Sign out of the Trainee App. You will be redirected to the login page. Your current training URL is remembered so you can return to it after logging back in.

​

3D Viewport

The main center area of the screen is the 3D environment where your training takes place. This is where you see the objects and equipment you’re training on, look around, interact with highlighted items, and follow animated instructions.

​

Floating Controls

On the left edge of the screen, you’ll see a set of floating buttons stacked vertically.

​

Reset Menu

A reset icon at the top. Click it to open a dropdown with three options: Reset Step — Restarts only the current step to its original state. Undoes any interactions you made in this step and brings back instructions and ghost hand animations. All progress from previous steps is kept. Reset Training — Restarts the entire training from Step 1. Clears all progress in the current session. Your completion history from previous sessions is preserved separately. Reset View — Returns your camera to the default position and viewing angle. Does not affect training progress or any interactions — purely a visual reset.

​

Share Button

Below the reset menu. This button is only visible if your account has Share permission for the training, which is determined by your role in the organization. Click it to open a share modal where you can invite others to the training:

• Enter one or more email addresses to invite
• Each email is validated before sending
• Once shared, the training appears in the invited user’s Dashboard

​

Camera Height Controls

Below the share button. A compact panel with + (raise viewpoint), − (lower viewpoint), and Reset height (return to default). See Navigating in 3D for full details.

​

Virtual Joystick

If enabled in Settings, two game-controller-style pads appear at the bottom of the screen — left for movement, right for camera rotation. See Navigating in 3D for full details.

​

Step Panel

The step panel appears in the corner of the screen and is your primary guide through each training step: Step Title and Instructions — What you need to do at each step Back / Next Buttons — Navigate between steps (when available) Multiple-Choice Questions — Select an answer from the provided options. Each choice navigates you to the step configured by the training author. Some choices may lead to different branches of the training depending on your answer. Text Input Fields — Type your response and press Enter or click the Next button. Some steps require a specific answer format and will show an error if your input does not match. In steps that combine a text input with an object interaction or a choice, you must enter a valid response first before you can interact with the object or select a choice.

​

Information Panels

Throughout your training, additional panels may appear with instructions, images, videos, or reference material.

​

Text Panels

A box with written instructions, explanations, or background information for the current step. Text panels remain visible as long as the current step is active and update as you progress through steps.

​

Image Panels

Diagrams, photos, or reference images that may show close-up views, exploded diagrams, or labeled parts. Study them as reference for what you’re looking for in the 3D scene.

​

Video Panels

An instructional video with play/pause controls. You can expand the video to full screen and control the volume from there. Watch the demonstration, pause to examine details, and rewind if needed.

​

Panel Placement & Behavior

Panels appear on the right side of the screen in screen space. Their visibility and content are controlled by the training creator — panels may be shown or hidden at different points in the training, and their content updates automatically as you progress through steps.

​

Ghost Hand Animations

When you need to interact with something, animated ghost hands show exactly what to do — tap, drag, or rotate. A direction indicator arrow on screen points toward the target object for the current step. See Interacting with Objects for full details.

​

How It All Works Together

1. Read instructions from the step panel
2. See visual guidance from highlighted objects and ghost hand animations
3. Interact by tapping on objects in the 3D scene — tap triggers the event (tap, move, or rotate) configured by the creator
4. Move to the next step using the step panel or by completing the interaction
