Abstract: An electronic device displays a representation of a physical space, receives a first set of inputs, and adds a first virtual annotation to the representation of the physical space, the first virtual annotation being linked to a portion of the representation of the physical space. The electronic device then receives a second set of inputs. If the second set of inputs corresponds to a request to create a virtual annotation within a threshold distance from the first virtual annotation, the electronic device creates a second virtual annotation in the representation of the physical space while maintaining the first virtual annotation. If the second set of inputs corresponds to a request to create a virtual annotation outside of the threshold distance from the first virtual annotation, the electronic device creates a second virtual annotation in the representation of the physical space and removes the first virtual annotation.
