What the Touch Elements plugin does
The Touch Elements plugin for viewneo is an interactive layer that turns any element in a template or slide into a touch target — no custom development required. When a viewer touches or clicks a marked element, a configured action fires: navigate to more detail, load a different playlist segment, or collect real-time feedback. The screen goes from broadcasting content to responding to visitors.
This gives you a direct path from passive signage to interactive communication. If you also use the Website Interaction plugin, you can redirect viewers to a live web page mid-playlist — combining local content with up-to-the-minute online information in a single experience.
How it works
- Open the Template Designer — in viewneo, open or create a template and place the content you want to make interactive.
- Mark elements as touch targets — select any object or region, assign it a touch action (navigate, trigger event, open URL, collect feedback), and save the template.
- Publish to your displays — once the updated template is in a playlist and pushed to your players, viewers can interact with those areas on any touch-capable screen.
Example use cases

- Hospitality venues — guests browse dining menus, spa services, or local attractions on a lobby screen, navigating at their own pace.
- Corporate offices — employees use a lobby display to submit a quick pulse survey or browse upcoming internal events.
