Preservation of MAP-zoom-level / variables to store zoom-level

[ErhartC]

Hi All!

I am seeking for a possibility to preserve the zoom-level of floorplans and maps in variables.
Is this possible?

Any help is welcome

Hi,

preserve the zoom-level of floorplans and maps

Can you elaborate a bit more on what you mean by preserve? Do you want to change the zoom level with a variable?

Hi Tony!

A bit more of information:

What's the case:
- Using an altered version of Feather-skin
- There you have 1 button for the floorplan and 1 button for the map
- When opening or reopening the map or floorplan, zoomlevel is resets to the zoomlevel configured in the skin (in this case in a timer-element)

What do I want:
- When user zooms to a sepcific level, this state should be reinitialiced when the map/floorplan will be reopened

Problem:
- There is no option to to this

Idea:
- Store the zoomlevel which the user is before closing the map (I cannot find a possibility to do that) and restore it (this is the easy task I presume)

Hi Guys,
If I may jump in, in the map element properties you will see Loading, with unload on hide selected.
So, each time the map element opens, showing a map or floor plan, it resets the view.
Deselect this to show the map or floor plan as it was when last closed.

Yes!!!

Thank You Hopki! I always question myself what this option really does.
Of course I testet it. But there (which I know now) is an overriding command in the Feather-Box-Skin in the timer element which hindered proper results (I questioned over month this commands too).

Now nearly functioning.


What does not work (at least now) is to preserve map-zoom state in the Feather-Box-skin when using it with the phone. But I am working on that.

Is this what you need?

Here you can have current zoom level as variable

Hi PanoMasters!

Yes, this would help too.

Could You give me a hint how to do it?

I am building a small Pano2VR store. You can get this element from here - https://panomasters.gumroad.com/l/MapZoomLevel

Late answer:

I am doing my tours just for fun in leisure time. Therefor I am not willing to spend more money for this kind of small solutions.
If I want to spend money - I never would do that over a website without any idendity information, legal notice, ...

Hi,
Just swinging back to this, if you deselect Unload on hide in any map element, then it will open using the same zoom level you had when it was closed.
However, in our skins, we have actions to reset the map; you need to identify these actions and remove them to get this to work.

Thank you Hopki!

I found exactly that out some time ago and removed it
