Hi,

I've just finished a new long-form tutorial 'Zooming Popup with Text Overlay'.

https://tonyredhead.com/pano2vr/hotspot ... -reveal-p1


Image

The two part tutorial covers a range of Pano2VR functions including adding Point Hotspots, building a multilayered skin element using an External Image as the base, creating variables and actions to manage the content in the skin including zooming in and out and a reveal text box with styled text.

Based upon feedback from some of my other tutorials I've added a number of 'Notes' that I hope will provide a better understanding of steps I've taken.

This tutorial reflects my personal approach to creating this particular effect but I'm sure there are other options as well and I welcome comments on alternative or simpler ways to accomplish the end effect.

cheers,

Tony

Hi,

After some great feedback from Mark Palmos I've updated the tutorial. The major change is the Addendum section of part two where I've provided illustrative and text updates to show how changing the pano.xml can change the popup button title and the text reveal description.
