Hi,
I have defined a custom hotspot property called "direction" for a hotspot. I use this custom hotspot property inside a skin hotspot template to change the direction of my ui element. The hotspot works fine initially. However when i change the value of custom property using the javascript call setHotspotPropValue(), the value is changed, but the UI does not reflect the change. If i do getHotspotPropValue() in the debug inspector, I can see the value has changed... But the UI, which should ideally reflect the change in value does not...Can this be fixed asap?

thanks
Harsh

Hi Harsh,
The team has replied to your e-mail but for anyone following, this is what they advised:

The functions to access custom hotspot properties have a first parameter, nodeID, which is used for Pano2VR, but useless in Object2VR, so basically you were right to leave that parameter empty. But this is where we have a bug in our player.
So instead of leaving that parameter empty, use 'object' as nodeID.
- obj.getHotspotPropValue("object", .....)
- obj.setHotspotPropValue("object", .....)

This should fix your problem.
