When you are positioning a snapshot, its object bubble is visible. Note its position relative to the group of objects in case you want to move or otherwise modify the snapshot. If you can't find the object bubble when you want to use it, see [finding-an-object-bubble](https://docs.engagevr.io/engage/advanced-features/modifying-objects/finding-an-object-bubble "mention").
