Settings

Click the gear at the top of the menu bar panel, or choose 'Settings…' in the PanoPaper menu (the panel's ⋯, or right-click the menu bar icon). The window comes to the front on the Space you are on, and opens on the tab you used last. It has seven tabs:

  • General - opening at login, how the video looks behind windows, camera names, the camera's audio, and updates.
  • Shortcuts - your own shortcuts for Full Screen, Hide Cameras and Mute Audio, and the keys that work on the desktop.
  • Cameras - your UniFi NVRs and IP cameras, signing in to them, and the order of your cameras.
  • Displays - each display's camera and stream quality, with a live preview to zoom and look around in.
  • Detections - being told when a camera sees someone, and how.
  • Broadcast - showing a camera live on YouTube, Facebook or another streaming service.
  • License - the free trial, PanoPaper Pro, and your purchase or license key.

The ? button in the bottom-right corner of each tab opens the help for that tab. ⌘W closes the window.
