UI tour

Breakroom's UI gives you the tools you need to thrive in the Metaverse. Learn how to find your way around, manage your personal connections, and access various types of media.

Overview

Breakroom's UI, or user interface, contains almost all of the information and tools you'll need to interact in virtual space. When enabled, the UI components will frame the screen.

An example of the UI in action. You can press the F9 key or Alt + U (⌘ + U) to toggle the UI on and off.

The tables below are designed to serve as a quick reference guide for the basic UI components and their functions. You can learn more about using Breakroom's conference system in our Getting Started section.

World Owners and World Administrators can enable and disable parts of the UI via the Dashboard. You may not have access to every component of the UI pictured above.
