  • left and gray (blue star)

There is also a quick indicator in the left sidebar that contains the exhibit list.

  • Exhibit off: the indicator is a red crossed-out lighting bolt (blue star)

Gumband also allows specific Controls and Settings to be available depending on the current operating mode; this is defined by the exhibit developer in the Exhibit Manifest. By default, Settings and Controls are only editable when operating mode is disabled — notice in the screenshots below how the “Reload” button is only available when the operating mode is set to off.

Info

Not all exhibits necessarily take advantage of this feature. If a setting or control is disabled in both operating modes, this may be limited by your user permissions for that exhibit.
