Noesis UI is now available in the Desktop Editor

We are excited to announce that Noesis, a 2D UI solution, is now integrated into the Worlds Desktop Editor so that creators can build more compelling UI and high-performance 2D UI panels, without needing to rely on coding. Some of the key features of Noesis include:

  • Richer Featureset: Create a Custom UI experience for your world, without needing complex work-arounds.
  • High-Performance Rendering: Immediate responses and fluid animation means your Custom UI will keep up with the rendering of every frame.
  • Easier/Faster UI Design and Iteration: Noesis Studio provides creators with a WYSIWYG visual editor, instead of having to rely just on code for designing UIs

In addition, the XAML you build today in Desktop Editor can be ported to the future Meta Horizon Studio with just some asset path and UI script adjustments so your work can be transferred and duplicated easily.

How it works: Creators will build their 2D UI panels in Noesis Studio, import the Noesis project into the Desktop Editor, and then associate the right Root XAML file to the new NoesisUI component. Check the documentation here for information on creating a Noesis UI component, configuring your NoesisUI panel, setting up animations for your panels, performance considerations, and fonts.

Want to see it in action?  You can see the first live Noesis UI within Profit or Perish – check the Profit or Perish Speech Dialogs to see it today, with more to come soon.
