Have you tried a different facial interface? With width could especially cause trouble. I was also struggling with discomfort and took some time to dial the dual band in, and also changed my light seal to the one that was in the box, and comfort is now a non issue. Have worn it for 3-4 hour blocks of time and only taken it off because human needs (food, rest, etc).
Re:Spreadsheet "breaks" Apple Vision Pro eye-tracking on Saturday February 10, 2024 @12:46PM (#39328378)
This is an important point. I’ve found that 45x45 pixel buttons are as low as I’m comfortable putting in my Vision Pro apps, with roughly 10px of padding. The eye tracking is good, but there are certainly limits of precision. A spreadsheet has a LOT going on, and each cell has at least two clickable areas. The bottom right drag area is probably impossible to target right now without accidentally going into the next cell. Spreadsheets have good form for what they’re used for. The new input method (eye and pinch) is going to help people rethink methods of interaction in places where “that’s how we’ve always done it” has been a mainstay. Maybe spreadsheets stay the same, but new approaches to interacting with data come to the surface.

Unfair and unlucky are different concepts. Randomness could be perceived as lucky and unlucky, but that’s not what they’re saying. Randomness, if truly random, is as fair as it gets.
Any plans or interest in a user interface?
