Web Interface

Every Stage in UNIVERSE can be made accessible as web page. In this case UNIVERSE acts as a web server.

Enabling the Web Interface

In order to use the Web Interface it has to be activated for each Stage individually. You can do so by either right-clicking the Stage you want to make available and selecting Open Web Interface or by going to the Properties of the Stage and set the State to "On" in the Web Interface section.

Note: UNIVERSE needs to be started with admin rights in order to provide the Web Interface.

Navigating between Stages

Navigating between Stages in the Web Interface can be completely independet from the native interface or other clients in the Web Interface but you can also synchronize the navigation if needed. To Switch from one Stage to another in the Web Interface you need to create a button and add the UNIVERSE Device to it. Select the "Switch Web Interface" Command and adjust the parameters to your needs.

Extending the Web Interface

For more advanced cases the UNIVERSE Web Interface can be extended by custom HTML, CSS and JavaScript. To add additional Code to the Web Interface go to Project > Project Settings > Webinterface Extension.

Project Webroot

In case you need to add additional content to your Web Interface you can use the Project Webroot. Files placed in the Webroot folder are statically hostet by the web server inside UNIVERSE. You can access the folder by clicking the folder icon at the bottom of the Webinterface Extension panel under Project > Project Settings > Webinterface Extension.
