- In Hubs, you can link to external web pages through link and image components, but this can detract from the user experience on the platform.
- XRCLOUD’s Spoke offers an Inline View component that allows you to view web pages without leaving the Room.
- There are four supported ways to display the page.
- Main: The page is loaded into the 3D space as an iframe.
- To allow iframes on external web pages, the external page must enable CORS for XRCLOUD’s Room URL (room.xrcloud.app) for proper loading.
- Side View: The page is loaded into the chat area as an iframe.
- This is particularly useful for mobile-friendly pages with a vertically long window, while keeping the 3D space intact.
- Self Window: The entire page is redirected, causing you to leave the Room.
- New Window: The Room remains intact while the page is opened in a new tab. The browser’s pop-up blocker must be disabled.
