# Labs features
Some notes on the features you can enable by going to `Settings->Labs`. Not exhaustive, chat in
[#riot-web:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#riot-web:matrix.org) for more information.
If Labs is enabled in the [Element config](config.md), you can enable some of these features by going
to `Settings->Labs`. This list is non-exhaustive and subject to change, chat in
[#element-web:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#element-web:matrix.org) for more information.
**Be warned! Labs features are not finalised, they may be fragile, they may change, they may be
dropped. Ask in the room if you are unclear about any details here.**
## Matrix Spaces [MSC1772](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/1772) support (`feature_spaces`)
Enables showing, using, creating, and managing spaces. Create Spaces from the all new Space Panel (to left of Room List).
Incompatible with (will disable) `feature_custom_tags`, `feature_communities_v2_prototypes` and stable Communities/Groups support.
Still in heavy development.
## Render LaTeX maths in messages (`feature_latex_maths`)
Enables rendering of LaTeX maths in messages using [KaTeX](https://katex.org/). LaTeX between single dollar-signs is interpreted as inline maths and double dollar-signs as display maths (i.e. centred on its own line).
## New spinner design (`feature_new_spinner`)
Replaces the old spinner image with a new, svg-based one featuring a sleeker design.
## Message pinning (`feature_pinning`)
Allows you to pin messages in the room. To pin a message, use the 3 dots to the right of the message

This also includes a new implementation of the user & member info panel, designed to share more code between showing community members & room members. Built on top of this new panel is also a new UX for verification from the member panel.
## Cross-signing (in development) (`feature_cross_signing`)
Cross-signing ([MSC1756](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/1756))
improves the device verification experience by allowing you to verify a user
instead of verifying each of their devices.
This feature is still in development and will be landing in several chunks.
## Event indexing and E2EE search support using Seshat (`feature_event_indexing`)
Adds support for search in E2E encrypted rooms. This enables an event indexer
that downloads, stores, and indexes room messages for E2E encrypted rooms.
The existing search will transparently work for encrypted rooms just like it
does for non-encrypted.
The setting will be removed in a future release, enabling it non-optionally for
all users.

This adds padlocks to room list tiles and room header for invite only rooms.
This feature flag (unlike most) is enabled by default.

Custom themes are possible through Element's [theme support](./theming.md), though
normally these themes need to be defined in the config for Element. This labs flag
adds an ability for end users to add themes themselves by using a URL to the JSON
theme definition.

## Message preview tweaks
To enable message previews for reactions in all rooms, enable `feature_roomlist_preview_reactions_all`.
To enable message previews for reactions in DMs, enable `feature_roomlist_preview_reactions_dms`, ignored when it is enabled for all rooms.
## Communities v2 prototyping (`feature_communities_v2_prototypes`) [In Development]
**This is a highly experimental implementation for parts of the communities v2 experience.** It does not
represent what communities v2 will look/feel like and can/will change without notice. Due to the early
stages this feature is in and the requirement for a compatible homeserver, we will not be accepting issues
or feedback for this functionality at this time.
## Dehydrated devices (`feature_dehydration`)
Allows users to receive encrypted messages by creating a device that is stored
encrypted on the server, as described in [MSC2697](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2697).
