E17 has a preliminary control panel. It does not have all the options that the command-line tool enlightenment_remote has, but it is a good start and will be expanded. The control panel currently includes the following categories:

• Appearance: Allows setting various options that control E17's looks.
• Applications: Contains various options for control of applications within E17.
• Screen: Contains various options pertaining to E17's interaction with the screen.
• Keyboard & Mouse: Allows configuration of various options in E17 that control keyboard & mouse behavior.
• Windows: Contains various options for control of how E17 handles windows.
• Menus: Contains various options which control how & what E17 will display in its menus.
• Language: Contains various options which control the Language and Input Mode of E17.
• Advanced: Contains various options to allow control over some of E17's more advanced settings.
• Extensions: Contains various options concerning E17's extension system, including modules.

Each setting has two view modes: basic and advanced. Advanced mode has more options to tweak, while basic keeps everything as simple and user-friendly as possible. Here's a screenshot of the current control panel:
