When using kiosk mode, the user has several options. They can choose to kiosk their entire dashboard or one single tab through selections in the Dashboard Options Menu (the menu icon at the top right of the dashboard). If the dashboard kiosk mode is selected, Periscope will cycle through each viewlet on the user’s current tab once, switch to the next tab in line, and repeat the process continuously. The kiosk mode will remain active until the user returns to the dashboard menu and selects the kiosk mode option again. The user also has the ability to configure informational pop-ups that can display custom, user-configured content. The light bulb icon is used to configure viewlet InfoPopups. If an InfoPopup has been configured, and the light bulb appears lit, the user can hold control and click on the light bulb to open the configuration menu. This content can be coded in HTML, or an image’s URL can be referenced by selecting the respective option. The user can also configure an “about” pop-up which can display an image or HTML entry when users first enter Periscope. This is configured through the Dashboard Options Menu, in entry boxes similar to those shown below. To close an InfoPopup, simply click anywhere on the image, or the close (x) for an HTML field.
