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)
