Hallo,
Is it possible to change or import new font into the Pano2VR. I need to use text with "Proxima Nova" font. I think it´s not part of Pano2VR.

Thanks for Help.

I am trying to incorporate new fonts into my Pano2VR project and am hoping you can help. I understand CSS classes and have been able to style my project using an external CSS doc, but I can't get the fonts to change.

I think it has something to do with the step where I'm supposed to delete the font-style lines from the normal.ggt file, per your tutorial. I know how to open the template parameters within Pano2VR in order to link it to an external CSS, but can't find the file on my system in order to adjust the HTML. I'm running a Mac. Can you tell me where that file is located and how I can open it in my text editor (Brackets)?

Thanks,

Hi,
In version 6 you just need to select disable default css font:

In V5 you need to remove the style in the HTML page as found in the head section.

Hi Jim,

You can find the location of the HTML template files on your computer by selecting Pano2VR/Preferences. In the Preference window click on the 'Files' tab, then under HTML Template Directory you will see the path to the folder containing the files.

Just browse to the location and open the file, change the font info and resave it with a new name.

Thanks Tony, I saw that in your text styling tutorial. At this point I'm trying to find the palette in the screenshot Hopki posted a few posts back, where default CSS font can be disabled.

The "disable Default Fonts" options seems to be removed in V6.1, is there a workaround to this?

Hi Isaac,

Yes, I've just found the new workflow. This project was built using files from my 'Styling Text with CSS and Local Fonts' tutorial but within Pano2VR V6.1.2a beta.

I'll be posting a new tutorial shortly and I'll post when it's up.

cheers,

Tony

Tony, worked flawlessly! Thanks so much.
I felt a bit silly once I noticed where the “default font” checkbox had moved to, it makes perfect sense to have this option per text box rather than globally.
