📝 Abstract
Anchoring - the choice of frame of reference for mixed reality (MR) interface elements - is a critical design decision involving trade-offs between accessibility, interaction comfort, and visual interference. Despite its importance, user preferences for anchoring across different mobility contexts and interface properties remain poorly understood, as prior work has largely focused on specific tasks or fixed interface configurations. We address this through a mixed-methods user study in which participants configure anchoring strategies across different mobility conditions and interface types. Combining behavioral analysis with structured qualitative inquiry, we analyze how participants select and reason about anchoring modes. Our results show a clear transition from world-anchored interfaces in stationary contexts to body-anchored interfaces during locomotion. However, no single body anchor consistently dominates, highlighting the personal nature of anchoring strategies. Our qualitative analysis reveals the factors users consider in their anchoring decision, including interface accessibility, stability during interaction, visual clutter, and individual mental models. These findings inform the design of adaptive and controllable MR interfaces and highlight the importance of supporting user customization.
