# Realigning a user's avatar When a VR headset user changes between being seated and standing in their physical environment, their avatar can become misaligned. You may notice that either the avatar is in a crouched posture or the avatar's hands are in a high position.

To realign a user's avatar, complete the following steps: 1. Open the menu, select **Host Controls**

. 2. Identify the user that has a misaligned avatar and select their more icon (three dots). 3. On the **Host Actions** page, select **Recenter User**.

{% hint style="info" %} A VR headset user can also realign their avatar through their wrist controls. For more information, see [Realigning your avatar in VR](/engage/avatars/realigning-your-avatar-in-vr.md). {% endhint %} If this option doesn't fix the avatar's appearance, they may need to change their tracking mode to Seated (Simulated Standing) or adjust their avatar's height to match their physical height. For more information, see [VR tracking modes](/engage/avatars/seated-and-standing-vr-modes.md) and [Setting your height](/engage/avatars/setting-your-height.md). --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
