Hi there,

When images (e.g. svg's for hotspots) are added to a skin or a component, and the skin saved - are the images saved within the package / component? Or are only the paths to those images saved within the package?

Many thanks,
Marc

Hi Marc,
The images are saved in the component.
However if the images are less than 10KB then the images may be saves as inline images in the skin.js file so you would not see them if you unzipped it.

Hi Marc,

If you have lost svg files and you want to retrieve them from the skin I've got a tutorial that covers how to "Retrieve SVG images from a Pano2VR Skin" at https://tonyredhead.com/pano2vr-little- ... trieve-svg

cheers,

Tony

Excellent - I was wondering what I needed to keep when I archived a project (and it's skin). Sounds like I can just keep the . ggsk file, and delete all the images I've referenced within the skin.

Many thanks for your help,
Marc
