== Action Menu ==
<infobox type="World" theme="official">
The Action Menu is the primary way to access controls for your avatar and various other quick-access functions. When using an Avatars 3.0 avatar, these controls can be fully customized and can be one of many types. This menu allows you to drive various parameters, informing your avatar on how to react based on how you've set up your animators.

=== Using the Action Menu ===
    <caption source="imagecaption" />
==== Controller ====
</image>
To open the Action Menu, hold down the "Menu" button that usually pulls up your Quick Menu. A new menu will pop up—this is the Action Menu. It provides quick access to items like emotes, emojis, avatar features, and more.

        <data source="developer"><label>Developer</label></data>
Use your joystick to move the cursor. Select items by moving to them and releasing the joystick—similar to "flicking" to the item. You can change the settings to confirm selections with a trigger pull in the Action Menu settings.

==== Desktop ====
    <data source="gen"><label>Generation</label></data>
Press '''R''' to open the Action Menu. You can only open one menu in Desktop mode, and you must click to confirm your choices.

==== Settings ====
        <data source="link"><label>World Link</label></data>
Using the "Bindings" button in the Settings menu, you can change how you pull up the Action Menu. For instance, you can set it to open by clicking the joystick on your controller.

=== Selection Methods ===
        <data source="published"><label>Published</label></data>
==== Flick Select ====
    </group>
In Flick mode, push the joystick in the direction of the pie slice you want to trigger. Pushing part way shows an indicator of the selection. Pushing all the way triggers the selection.
</infobox>[[Category:Worlds]] [[Category:Official Content]]
 
==== Pick Select ====
Pick mode involves pushing the joystick towards the pie slice and confirming the selection with the trigger on the controller (or mouse click on Desktop). The default mode is Flick, except for Vive controllers. You can switch to Pick mode in Action Menu > Settings > Flick enabled setting.
 
=== Layout ===
The UI consists of three levels: the Action Menu, the Expression Menu, and the Puppet Menu.
 
==== Action Menu ====
The root menu includes: Gesture Toggle, Config (for the UI), Emojis, Expression Menu, and Close.
 
==== Expression Menu ====
This menu can have various widgets, including stages. Entering a stage with puppets switches you to that stage's puppet mode. You can have multiple stages in each expression menu and a menu open in each hand.
 
==== Widgets ====
Widgets include Button, Toggle, and other control types, which can be configured to act in various ways.
 
==== Puppet Menu ====
The Puppet Menu allows you to drive various values/parameters for your avatar. When building an Avatars 3.0 avatar, you can map these out. In this mode, you can move the joysticks, touch the Vive touchpad, or use your mouse to control the puppet.
 
To return to the Expression Menu from a Puppet Menu, pull the trigger with the stick centered.
 
=== Closing and Saving ===
To close the Action or Expression Menu or any of their folders, choose the Back option at the top of the radial menu. Clicking the joystick (holding down the Vive button or pressing '''R''' on the keyboard) will close the menu but remember your place. Reverse this process to return to where you left off.
 
=== Puppet Menu Example ===
[[File:PuppetMenu.webp|thumb|The Puppet Menu in action]]
As you move your joystick/touchpad/mouse in various directions, you drive animation parameters to different values. This setup allows blending between various "moods," such as "happy" and "surprised," or other adjacent moods.
 
This is one way to use the Puppet Menu. Anything that can be parameterized can be controlled from this menu. There are also toggle buttons and other types of UI elements still in development.
 
You can pull up one menu on either hand (or both simultaneously). By default, you "flick" to select an option. In the Action Menu settings, you can choose to use the Trigger to select an option.
 
To back out after making a selection in the Expressions menu, pull the trigger. Pull the trigger again to return to the main menu.
 
=== Accessing the Action Menu ===
==== Valve Index Controllers ====
* Pull up the Action Menu by clicking the joystick on the corresponding hand.
* Back out of menus (or select an option when "Flick Select" is disabled) with the trigger.
 
==== Oculus Touch Controllers ====
* Pull up the Action Menu by clicking the joystick on the corresponding hand.
* Back out of menus (or select an option when "Flick Select" is disabled) with the trigger.
 
==== Vive Wand Controllers ====
* Pull up the Action Menu by clicking and holding the Menu button at the top of the controller.
 
==== Other Controllers ====
* If there's a joystick, clicking it in should bring up the Action Menu.
* Back out of menus (or select an option when "Flick Select" is disabled) with the trigger.
 
==== All Controllers ====
* Pull up the UI by holding down the Quick Menu button.
 
==== Desktop Mode ====
* Press '''R''' to pull up the Action Menu.
* Move the mouse to select items, and click to confirm selections.
* Click to back out of menus.
 
=== Debug Menu ===
The debug menu in the Action Menu is a powerful tool. It displays the current animator state of your avatar, including parameter values, tracking states, and current motion states. It is useful for debugging.
