Hi to all,
I don't understand what I did wrong about the parameter Altitude in the skin editor...
I've a text field which is supposed to update the Altitude from the GPS data.
Sometimes, when the field is empty, then the Altitude is updated, but doesn't change with the next panorama.
The text field is always visible and when there is no data for the Altitude, the field is empty which is correct.
Any idea may be ?
Best regards, Jean-Paul.

Hi Jean-Paul,
All you need to do is add the placeholder to the text box.
This will update when changing nodes.

Hi Hopki,
Thanks for the answer but I want the Altitude field to be empty when there is no GPS data, that's why I had put a condition in the logic block before.
See below what happens:
and then this
Otherwise, indeed, the Altitude field updates much better with your method and not with mine...

Hi,
I'm glad it's working, so the text is not seen when there is no altitude, so not set.
I would have just had $(alt) in the text box and then added an action filter.
This removes all text.
To go one further you can even use the same logic in the text boxes visible logic block to remove the text box altogether.
Just a different way to achieve the same thing.
