The Ensemble Quick Actions Menu can be added to a project within the Ensemble App Settings policy screen. The purpose of this menu is to allow end users access to a few settings for easy access to certain settings without granting full access to the settings menu.


To access the option to enable this menu, navigate to the project, Policies, Ensemble App Settings.



These settings are helpful to end users who wish to change the brightness of the device without having full access to the settings, preventing any unforeseen complications if the user were to change a setting they should not have access to.


On the device itself, once the project has been saved and deployed, there will be a Gear icon in the top right of the device, directly to the left of the Ensemble menu button, as outlined below:
