there is "Add node marker" button in skin editor. When I saw it, I thought that it is possible to set nodes manually (and I thought that PRO only automate this process). But I don't understand how I can do this. Maybe I just stupid and need to read upcoming documentation on new features.

HI,
You can use Tags with the node marker tool.
Please see attached project of a three node tour.

It uses tags that are in the user data of each panorama.
Each node marker uses the tag to show the normal and active states.
Each node marker then has its own text box and actions to show and hide it as well as open next panorama.

Using Tags you can switch maps, change skin elements all depending which panorama you are in, what you can do with this is just down to your own creativity.

Thanks a lot for this info. This is very useful feature.

P.S. about how long documentation update will take?

Why not make an actions "activate", "deactivate", "toggle activity" for node markers? This will give us two digit variables for skin work purposes. This is strange solution, but it is ready and only await actions for it.
But perfect solution is to make real string and numeric variables and three operators "if" "then" "set" for them. This will easy so much things! Please think about it in future versions.
