Quicktime from cubes?

Due to sloppy backup and HD failure, I have a number of panos only in Flash format. As Pano2vr does not accept flash files as input, I first extract the cubes from the flashfile (Using SWFRIP), then have to rotate the nadir clockwise and the zenith counterclockwise for import as cubes. This works fo...

Droplet crashes

After I have set viewing parameters, the droplet crashes when I want to set latitude and longitude (click on the red teardrop)

Re: retain On/Off state of autorotation in next pano

Thanks Hopki, I thought it was something that had crept in after the last version update. The vr tour I did for Universal Studios does retain rotate state when clicking to the next pano, but a mini tour I made with the current version (v 4.1.0) of Pano2vr Pro does not: http://sphericalpanoramas.com/...

retain On/Off state of autorotation in next pano

IMHO, the main purpose of autorotation is to make the visitor aware that they are viewing an interactive image. When autoratation is toggled OFF by the viewer, it should stay off when going to the another pano in the tour. Is there a way to carry over the autorotation state (On or Off) to the next p...

Re: show/hide skin during left mouseclick on pano

Thanks Don, I was hoping to do this from within the pano, but I have never seen an example of that so maybe it is not possible. It would be nice to make elements of the skin hide while looking around in the pano, but it might be confusing for first time visitors. In the past I had a hidden skin that...

show/hide skin during left mouseclick on pano

This may have come up before, but I cant think of a search term for the subject. I am working on an update and redesign of my website and want the index page to open with a browser filling pano. Because this pano also has to function as a home page for the website, I am thinking of a skin that provi...

Re: html5 detection "desktop" vs mobile

Don, Sorry for the long delay. The reason things may have been failing is probably due to the fact that the developers are still working on it. Here is the link where things work more or less as I would like. http://universal.filmmakersdestination.com/home/sound-stages-backlot/virtual-tour/ Desktops...

Re: html5 detection "desktop" vs mobile

Don, Under scenario #4 I meant to say: The whole website is meant for film makers. The URL is universal.filmmakersdestination.com. And in Hollywood they all use Apple devices. So I am only serving up flash in an iframe for desktops and I am ignoring flash for mobile. Fullscreen html5 for desktops is...

Re: html5 detection "desktop" vs mobile

Don, A corrected version: Scenario #1: Desktop browser, without flash - display html5 in an iframe. Scenario #2: Desktop browser with flash - display flash, with iframe. The reason is that desktop browsers can go fullscreen in flash as well as html5. Scenario #3: Mobile browser without flash (all iO...

Re: html5 detection "desktop" vs mobile

Maybe I am not understanding correctly what you are suggesting. The only time that the html5 version needs to be in the iframe is when a desktop browser is detected without flash. When mobile is detected, the vr tour needs to be presented browser filling fullscreen, due to iOS not being able to &quo...

Re: html5 detection "desktop" vs mobile

Hi Don, Thanks for those links. If I understand it correctly, "feature detection" is the current (and more future proof) way of doing this. You probably already know that Pano2VR does most of that internally for us. In this particular instance, because the client presents the vr tour in an...

html5 detection "desktop" vs mobile

I need to supply the Universal Studios website developers with info on how to distinguish between current "desktop" (non-mobile) browsers without Flash plugins and mobile devices. The designers insist on having the vr tour in an iframe. Currently, we decided on external mobile detection, s...

Re: iframe html5 coding question

To "escape" from an iframe, I have tried the following: The action for the fullscreen button points to the browser filling pano.html page with target _top. The fullscreen button is hidden and another button shows. This button action goes to URL of the page with the iframe on it, also with ...

Re: iframe html5 coding question

Yes, but I am just pretending it is a fullscreen button, but it does not have the toggle fullscreen action. Instead it goes to the url of the pano, and replaces the page with the iframe with the browser-filling pano page. I tried this and it works as expected. After having clicked on the button, it ...
