A selection parameter defining the position of the hand(s) in relation to the body when the object transfer take place.

If none (keep current posture) is selected, the object position remains unchanged and the second hand is guided to the best possible grab point. Upper body movement is allowed, unless Upper body upright is activated.

With below waist the position may not be achievable without bending, so only this setting allows upper body movement unless Upper body upright is enabled.
