Hi,

after some tests with the HTML5 output with "auto rotation" AND "Include gyroscope
control" it seems as if these two options cause a conflict.

When I activate both and load that panorama on an iPad 2 the panorama jitteres a
little bit and the auto rotation won't activate. I think, because the gyroscopes register
minimal movement - even if the iPad lies on a stable surface without touching it.

Anyone with a solution?

Thanks a lot in advance and regards,

Josch

Hi
Yep quit right, no point in autorotate and gyro being use together.
However if you produced two HTML pages, one with gyro and one without and have a gyro button set to goto url this could then load the HTML page with gyro.

To tidy it up you could also hide the autorotate button when in the gyro HTML page and show it when back to the non gyro HTML page.
