good evening,
cant solve the folowing problem:

on my first panorama i have a text box (as a instruction to use the steps in the panorama)
img_322.jpg
img_322.jpg (176.58 KiB) Viewed 4145 times
it appears only few seconds therefore i set a timer and only in this picture therefore i set a node marker.

but every time when i come back to this panorama the box appears. that i dont want. i only want her to see one time in the first panorama.

i tried different ways also with logic blocks, but i did not find a good solution.

Hi Wiso,

add to your timer a move outside the view. That means the Text is visible when you come back but is outside your window.
Have a nice day

thats an idea!
thank you christian.

i had also a work around in another project. i cloned the complete first panorama, with all nodes and so on.. but only without the text box. the trick is that then the nodes back are set to the second panorama and you never come back to the first one. but it is not so smooth and much bigger file size.

thx,
regards,

Hi Guys,
I may be missing something here, I can't see why you need logic blocks and timers.

Why not have the text box visible then give it a mouse click hide self action.
It will then only show in the first pano and then once clicked it will hide forever.
You can also include a screen tint to move attention from the background image to the text box.

hi hopky,
because its not so elegant!

look at this,
http://www.wisocast.at/kulturfuechsin/j ... index.html

the box appears , moves a little and after few seconds it hides and the other boxes will be visible (on the basis of your script hopki, thanks)

and this works fine and smooth, and the only disturbing thing for me is that it will come every time i go back to this panorama...

is there a simple solution, or have i to use my work around with the two identical panoramas?

thx,
wiso

Hi wiso,
If you have an init action in the timer and set for one time then it should only happen once.
Of course if you reload the HTML page it will be seen again but if a multi node tour and your not reloading the HTML page you should only see it once.
