Detailed Description

Manages interactive object selection and highlighting in 3D scenes with multi-layer visual feedback systems.

The SceneSelectionManager is a professional component that orchestrates runtime object selection with hover effects, active highlights, and change indicators. It provides intuitive interaction for operators and engineers to inspect components, view properties, and interact with simulation elements during virtual commissioning and training scenarios.

Key Features:

• Multi-layer visual feedback with separate hover, selection, and change highlights
• Raycast-based object detection with automatic hover effects
• Interactive property windows for selected objects
• Support for multiple selection states with customizable visual feedback
• Integration with AbstractSelectionManager for flexible highlighting strategies

Common Applications:

• Interactive training simulations where operators can inspect equipment
• Virtual commissioning environments for debugging and testing
• 3D HMI systems with component property inspection
• Maintenance training scenarios with detailed part information

Integration Points:

• Works with SceneSelectable components to define selectable objects
• Uses SelectablePart for individual part highlighting
• Integrates with AbstractSelectionManager for visual feedback
• Compatible with rvUIToolbarButton for UI integration

Performance Considerations:

• Uses RaycastAll for accurate multi-layer object detection
• Caches Camera.main reference for performance optimization
• Efficient hover state management to minimize visual updates
