How to get control over hand tracking palm menues?

Hello everyone, I'm developing a VR game for the Quest 3 with Hand Tracking. Currently, I'm learning the Meta XR Interaction SDK along with its associated examples. I've encountered two issues, and perhaps you can help me with them:
 
  1. Currently, I'm using the option to open a menu by touching the left thumb and index finger. This is the menu that I can activate by looking at my left palm. I haven't figured out where I can, for example, change the hamburger menu icon. 
  2. I want to completely deactivate the function on the right hand that allows me to minimize the current application with the index finger and thumb (where I can then resume or exit it). This also applies to the option to double tap against the HMD so that users no longer have the ability to end the application without controllers. How can I get the left handed hamburger menu also for the right handed palm menü?
 
Does anyone have any tips for me?

the right hand system menu cannot be overriden- it is the system level mechanism to stop/ pause/ recenter.

this is equivalent to the right controller oculus home button, which cannot be overriden either

Is it possible to control the right handed menu with meta for business? For our project it's really important users can't minimize or close the whole game.

Still no idea? 😕

the right hand menu is the system menu which cannot be overriden in any scenario. this is needed to always give users the ability to pause/ exit/ recenter their view.

any reason not to use the left hand menu for this (the app menu button)?

Apologies for my delayed response.

Our ongoing project involves developing a seated VR experience for a museum. The objective is to create an experience that doesn't require any assistance from staff. We're concerned that users might accidentally close the project prematurely. In our scenario, simply shutting down the HMD terminates the project, serving as a failsafe measure.

In essence, I'm requesting a kiosk mode of sorts. For our project, it would be beneficial if users could access the left hand menu also using their right hand.

it's a system level enforcement. there's no way to override it
