Frontend Settings
Dashboard - Getting Started
Overview
Customize how users interact with your streamed experience. The Frontend Settings panel allows you to fine-tune user input, UI elements, and interactivity options for your Unreal Engine application streamed through StreamPixel. This enables a tailored, user-friendly experience aligned with your application type—whether it's simulation, configurator, or multi-user exploration.
What it does?
This module lets you control:
Which input devices are supported (mouse, keyboard, touch, gamepad, XR)
Which UI elements appear (volume button, fullscreen, resolution, etc.)
How users interact with the stream (hover, fake touch, mic, etc.)
Why It Matters
Enabling or disabling the right frontend options helps you:
Deliver a streamlined and distraction-free user interface
Prevent unintended inputs for kiosk or enterprise setups
Allow or block advanced control types (e.g., XR, mic, gamepads)
Customize interactivity per application type (e.g., touch-first vs. keyboard-first)
Key Options & Features

Enables XR-specific inputs (for WebXR integration). Keep disabled unless using VR/AR.
Hovering Mouse Setting
