## Objective
|

||||||
-Notes:
|

-Key concepts:
|

-Possible: Yes / Partial / No
|
- Possible: **Yes**
|
||||||
-Notes:
|

-What R3F abstracted:
|

-Complexity: Easy / Medium / Hard
|

## Suggested Improvement

-What should improve in Thob?

-Is it:

## Difficulty Estimate
|
- Improve reliability of event execution (e.g., onClick behavior)
|
||||||
-Easy / Medium / Hard
|
- Introduce hover interaction support (`onHoverStart`, `onHoverEnd`)
|

|
- Provide clearer feedback when event actions fail

## Recommendation

## Recommendation
|
||||||
Should Thob support this better? Why?
|
|
||||||
|
To enable interactive 3D experiences, the builder should strengthen its event system, ensuring reliable execution of click triggers and adding support for hover-based interactions.

# Builder Exploration Notes — Task 3: Hover Interaction
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Capability Gap Identified
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Hover Events**: No visible support for `onPointerOver` / `onPointerOut` (hover) in the interaction panel
|
||||||
|
- **Click Behavior**: `onClick` trigger is present in UI, but actions did not produce visible results during testing
|
||||||
|
- **Visual Logic**: No clear way to connect user interaction to visual state changes (e.g., color/scale)
|
||||||
|
- **Interaction Experience**: Scene appears static due to lack of responsive feedback
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Observations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Interaction UI exists but execution behavior is unclear or inconsistent
|
||||||
|
- Hover-based interaction is not exposed as a first-class concept
|
||||||
|
- Click interaction may require additional configuration or may be unstable in current environment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Comparison vs Code
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Vanilla**:
|
||||||
|
- Requires raycasting and mouse tracking
|
||||||
|
- Fully controllable but complex
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **R3F**:
|
||||||
|
- Hover interaction is simple using `onPointerOver` / `onPointerOut`
|
||||||
|
- Very intuitive and minimal code
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Thob**:
|
||||||
|
- Hover interaction not available
|
||||||
|
- Click interaction present but did not behave as expected during testing
|
||||||
|
|

|
||||||
|
## Key Insight
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The builder currently lacks clear support for continuous pointer-based interactions (like hover) and shows limitations in reliably executing event-based visual updates.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Product Perspective
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Hover interactions are essential for user feedback (highlighting, selection cues). The absence or instability of such interactions limits the builder’s ability to create engaging 3D experiences.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Verdict
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Strong for **static visual setup**
|
||||||
|
Limited for **interactive behavior (hover and dynamic feedback)**
