Hi JPS
You docent have to Quote every line i write trying to help you !
use this when there are several active users on a tread :D
Now, one question: I reckon that, on the old version, writing "$n_xxxxxx.yyy" in the OUTPUT line forced the system to use the name of the equirect file and -if not mistaking- save the QTVR, Flash and possible HTML5 files in the original files ditectory... Can we do the same now ?
Do you have $n in the OUTPUT line ?
try the attached TESTDROPLET
to see if it runs

V.4.5 Droplet.zip

Ok for the "quotes" :? !

Thanks for the Droplet... but it doesn't work better than the one I made :-( !

I'll joint my V.4.5 droplet (wich you will have to modify the "Proprieties" to suit YOUR image file location) !

...and a screen-copy of what happen (on Pano2VR 4.5) when I drop my file into my droplet !

Image

...so, I would like to get the same thing with the Pano2VR 5 droplet !

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance...

Hi JPS
i have translated the image text

Image

the Popup function are not in Version 5
But You can have 4.5 and 5 installed on the same PC Mac or Linux
if they are installed in different catalogs or folders
one will have the same skins and languish settings in both applications
create the droplet in version 4.5 and check the Viewing Parameters and User data
if you want that facility.

Yes, that's exactly what I have been doing, obviously :? !

Pity this function has been forgotten (?) in version 5 ! It was extremely useful !

Hi Guys,
Pano2VR 5 does not use popups so it can not popup a window in-between outputs in a droplet.
To this end in version 5 we added output templates.
This way rather than making a droplet you make an output and save it as a template.
Now you can add an image adjust viewing parameters and user data, select the template and output.
Regards,
Hopki

Yes i tried to show this in my little screen cast but i am only having one template :D

and with to many customized Skins it is little difficult to find in the drop down window

YES it is more easy to open the Skin folder where you can have sub folders, but they are not seen in the drop down interface :wink:
That was one :idea: for Thomas

You can even have multiple outputs and a transformation you can use as thumbnail on your website

Haaaaaa ! Just when I was writing a PM to you, asking you to read this thread and tell my WHY it doesn't work and what's the way around the problem :-) !

So, what you say is that I can make a TEMPLATE, instead of a DROPLET, and use it just about the same ? Pity... I found the droplet very useful and faster... Ohhh well....

:)
