A computing system, while displaying a first view of a first computer-generated three-dimensional environment including a representation of a respective portion of a physical environment, and a first representation of one or more projections of light in a first portion of the first computer-generated three-dimensional environment, detects, from a first user, a query directed to a virtual assistant. In response, the computer system displays animated changes of the first representation of the one or more projections of light in the first portion of the first computer-generated three-dimensional environment, including displaying a second representation of the one or more projections of light that is focused on a first sub-portion of the first portion, and then displays content responding to the query at a position corresponding to the first sub-portion of the first portion.
