Hello
Im Trying to get into Vuforia and are playing around in the Multi Target Example. Is it possible to hide the rendered Target(the cornflakes box or display another object on the position on screen) In reality there is the cornflakes box, but on screen there is a much bigger box looking different one. I cant hide the virtual cornflakes box the render components are grayed out.
GameObject.Find("name of object") normally works.

If you are new to Unity, it's worth checking out the Learn Unity Section to understand the basics

..which should not take too long to go through.

But I’m still asking myself how I could toggle off the render component of a Multitarget Hierarchy child
If you mean you want to turn each individual face off in the MT then this is not possible.
If you mean you have separate children attached to the MT object, then these are controllable by customising the DefaultTrackableEventHandler script in the OnTrackingFound/Lost methods. As shown below, all they do at present is switch the renderer/collider components on/off.
Any Ideas of how i con Toggle on an of some kind of “AR info objects” being attached to the Model with a button
You would need to customise these methods based on finding the "AR Info object" and then activating/deactivating it accordingly.

private void OnTrackingFound()
{
Renderer[] rendererComponents = GetComponentsInChildren<Renderer>(true);
Collider[] colliderComponents = GetComponentsInChildren<Collider>(true);
// Enable rendering:
foreach (Renderer component in rendererComponents)
{
component.enabled = true;
}
// Enable colliders:
foreach (Collider component in colliderComponents)
{
component.enabled = true;
}
Debug.Log("Trackable " + mTrackableBehaviour.TrackableName + " found");
}
I have solved the main Problem. The Multi Target of the example was just too big, I have created a new smaller one and moved it into the Model and the Model is replacing the "Real Box" correctly.
But I’m still asking myself how I could toggle off the render component of a Multitarget Hierarchy child, because on runtime every child’s render component is set to true automatically one the target comes in view. Sadly “Gameobject.active=true/flase” doesn’t work too, in order to toggle the visibility of child’s of multitarget
Any Ideas of how i con Toggle on an of some kind of “AR info objects” being attached to the Model with a button, off course only if the Model/Multitarget itself is in view?
No problem, we're all learning :)
