Hello all
I,ve a template that outputs all my panos in swf and html5 for pc's, phones and tablets.

Is there any way to name the skins for the various html5 output from the standard 'skin.js' to something like 'tablet_skin.js and mobile_skin.js
At the moment I'm renaming them manually but it would be handy if I could have this happen when I'm processing everything.
Maybe do something to the normal.ggt file?

Any thoughts?

Thank you

Hi PaulK,
Sorry no, you have to rename manually as you would do the HTML page to look for a renamed skin.js file.
However in V5 we have some ideas that may save you from doing this :wink:

Hi Hopki

Thanks for the reply - Thought that would be the case. Any hints as to what your ideas will be? and when you're planning the release of V5?

One thing I have done is amend the normal.GGT file to write the manifest file to include:

- renaming of file extension from .manifest to .appcache
- add in a reference to a to the custom app icon
- add in a reference to the .xml and .htm files

This way the entire output can be uploaded to the server without any manual additions to the manifest file.
