         labels = choices, 
         button = 1, 
         dev = cur3d(), 
         subscene = currentSubscene3d(dev), 
         default = par3d("mouseMode", dev = dev, subscene = subscene)[button + 1],

Details

A result of an rglwidget call can be passed as the sceneId argument. This allows the widget to be “piped” into the rglMouse call. The widget will appear first, the selector next in a tagList.

If the sceneId is a character string, it should be the elementId of a separately constructed rglwidget result.

Finally, the sceneId can be omitted. In this case the rglMouse result needs to be passed into an rglwidget call as part of the controllers argument. This will place the selector before the widget on the resulting display.

If the mouse mode is changed while brushing the scene, by default the brush will be removed (and so the selection will be cleared too). If this is not desired, set stayActive = TRUE.

Examples

if (interactive() || in_pkgdown_example()) {
  open3d()
  xyz <- matrix(rnorm(300), ncol = 3)
  id <- plot3d(xyz, col = "red", type = "s")["data"]
  par3d(mouseMode = "selecting")
  share <- rglShared(id)

# This puts the selector below the widget.
  rglwidget(shared = share, width = 300, height = 300) %>% rglMouse()
  
# This puts the selector above the widget.
  rglMouse() %>% rglwidget(shared = share, width = 300, height = 300, controllers = .) 
}
