Hi all.

Id like to do this,

http://www.cookscarriages.co.uk/virtual_tour.htm

but have it open using a flash version, What is the best way to do this? Do i need to open it in
a new window, then the user clicks the fullscreen button.

(A lightbox as used in the gallery would be nice but the version that supports flash doesnt look as good )

Also on a test page, here,

http://www.cookscarriages.co.uk/flash_test.htm the fullscreen button is not working.

And if i use the pano2vr to produce the html page i get this,

http://www.cookscarriages.co.uk/tour/pano1/pano2.html

I see the file p2q_embed_object.js says ver 1, as output by pano2vr, but this is in the page generated by pano2vr,

if ((window.p2q_Version) && (window.p2q_Version>=2.0)) {
// Check to see if the version meets the requirements for playback

Any help appreciated, thanks,

John Goulding,
Kind regards,

John Goulding

Try adding <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />

BTW, you might want to download the debug version of flash from the Adobe sight. It will help point out problems like this.

Thanks, I have had a change of mind and may have the page like this one,

http://www.cookscarriages.co.uk/test_tour.htm

not sure yet as work in progress, I still seem to be losing quality somewhere as the qt one looks better
so i may try to sharpen up the images and start again with this, or leave in qt format but i really wanted
to move over to flash eventually. I wonder if any of you can advise me of settings to use,

thanks for your help,

John.
Kind regards,

Replace this:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">
p2q_EmbedFlash('tour/pano1/pano_out.swf', '100%', '100%','allowFullScreen','true');
</SCRIPT>

with this:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
if ((window.p2q_Version) && (window.p2q_Version>=2.0)) {
// Check to see if the version meets the requirements for playback
var flashvars="";
p2q_EmbedFlash('tour/pano1/pano_out.swf','100%','100%','allowFullScreen','true','FlashVars',flashvars);

if (!DetectFlashVer(9,0,0)) {
document.write('<p class="warning">This content requires Adobe Flash Player Version 9 or higher. '
+ '<a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash/">Get Flash<\/a><\/p>');
}
} else {
document.writeln('<p class="warning">p2q_embed_object.js is not included or it is too old! Please copy this file into your html directory.<\/p>');
}
//-->
</script>

Be sure to upload the "correct" latest p2q_embed_object.js file.

I don´t get it. My small testpano still does not open FullScreen. Below you´ll find the code in the html page pointing to the Dandylions.swf-file. Any suggestions?

<body bgcolor="black">
<div id="layer1">
<table width="64" border="1" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shoc ... on=6,0,0,0" height="252" width="399">
<param name="movie" value="Dandylions.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="best" />
<param name="play" value="true" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
<embed height="252" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="Dandylions.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="399" quality="best" play="true"></embed>
</object></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</body>

Your pano works fine in full screen with Internet Explorer. But if you also want it to work with Firefox, Opera, Safari etc.
You will need to add AllowFullScreen = "true" within the "embed" tags also.

<embed height="252" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="Dandylions.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="399" quality="best" play="true" AllowFullScreen="true"></embed>
