[Feature Request] Support saving and loading using the ARAnchorManager API #187

Closed camnewnham closed 2 months ago

At present, it appears that the technique for saving anchors on the HoloLens 2 is to use Microsoft.MixedReality.OpenXR.XRAnchorStore. I was lucky to find an example of this usage in the World Locking Tools samples.

However there are similar functions in the ARAnchorManager API that would not require a whole lot of #if UNITY_WSA -- enabling code compatibility with Meta etc.

At present, ARAnchorManager.subsystem.subsystemDescriptor.supportsSaveAnchor returns false, so it appears this API is not yet implemented. Is this on the roadmap for the Microsoft OpenXR plugin?

@camnewnham thank you for your feedback. The team will prioritize accordingly. For the time being please continue to use Microsoft.MixedReality.OpenXR.XRAnchorStore.
