hallo,
is it possible to pause an animation. so that the user can stop the animation "look arround" in the panorama and then continue the the animation on the same point?

tried to make a virtual tour with different guided tours - and it would be great if this tours can be interupted and continued.

here a sample with two tours (red and blue mouse)

Hi wiso,
Animation can be started in two ways, you can use a button with a Start Animation action and which animation sequence you want to start.
If the animation is interrupted it just stops and will not restart.

If in the HTML5 output you set Animation for Autorotate then this makes it work a little different.
You start the Animation with the start autorotate action if interrupted and moved, after the timeout, the panorama will rotate back to the point it was interrupted then carry on with the animation.

If you stop the animation with a Stop Autorotate action, then on start it will rotate back to the beginning of the animation sequence for that node.
There is a feature request to be able to pause an animation and restart from point of interruption.

The point for this is so you can have an animation using the start animation action but then also have a standard autorotation all within the same tour.
