Hi,
I am new to Pano2 VR. I want to work with pinned images, which works fine so far.
What I cannot find is the part of the skin which shows them when they pop up.
I would like to add an information text.
I have done it in the normal "image-popup" but this shows only when I add an image hotspot.
The pinned images somehow use another part of the skin.
Has anybody a hint for me, where to look for it.
Thanks
Uta

Hi Uta,
The topic has been moved to Pano2VR General so more people may see it.
With regards to the pinned images you can not add more text, what happens is on click the can popout or popout 100%.
If you want to add text then the way to do this would be to link to a polygon hotspot drawn around the image, then this can open the image popup in the skin.
Please see this post: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=14304

Thank you for your answer Martin,
I will try to understand it. It is a bit hard in English, but I will tell you if I suceeded.
I have downloaded the example and will have a look at it.

Great, that will help a lot. I am god in everday English but the technical terms are a challenge to me.
I tried your version, but I need the information field for information. So I have to find a workaround. I had to do it with a point hotspot. That works so far.
Just for further learning and understanding: What means $(r)$(hu) and all the other expressions with the Dollar Symbol. Is there a list somewhere where I can find their meaning?
I like to understand what I am doing.
Thank you
Uta

Hi Uta,
These are place holders that Pano2VR uses to fetch information from other areas of the software.
As an example, if you had a text box in the skin with the placeholder $(ut), then it would display the User Data Title for each panorama.
A full list of placeholders can be found here: ggnome.com => Ducumentation => Pano2VR 6 => Refrence => List of placeholders
