Transferring an interactable from one XRSocketInteractor to another?

Unity Engine

Hello all,
I am creating a VR experience where you can use a drill to put bolts back into a wheel. How would I go about removing the bolt from the drill’s XRSocketInteractor to the wheel’s XRSocketInteractor?

I’ve tried disabling the components temporarily but still no cigar. I would love some insight on how I could accomplish this, thanks all!

Unity version: 2019.4.8f1
XRInteractionToolKit: preview 0.9.4

See images below for a screenshot, the drill picks up the bolt (highlighted green) fine but cannot put it back into another slot as it’s locked into the drills slot.

I am also facing this problem.
In fact we need to know how to perform the following 2 basic operations from script:

  • How to unselect (‘move out’) an interactable from the XRSocketInteractor that has it selected.
  • How to select (‘move in’) an interactable into an ‘empty’ XRSocketInteractor (NOT at startup, i.e. NOT using StartingSelectedInteractable property from XRSocketInteractable).
