Hello guys,

I currently have a tour in the works hence I am here. I work with the latest beta V8 and have modified a skin based on Quaranta.

Where I show video's I activated the controls and loop check boxes in the skin editor of "video_file_popup_video".

Question or suggestion:
It seems that when I click on a hotspot to activate the video_file_popup, the mouse over triggers the overlay where the content appears behind a grey translucent layer (with obviously the controls).
Is there an option that this overlay is not activated directly after opening the hotspot, and just activates with a tap (on a smartphone) or mouse action _after_ opening the hotspot?

This seems like a welcome improvement. I am aware that this is a beta, so may be this could be a thing for future development? Please see attached screenshots.

Overall keep going, I love the constant development of the software!

Additional issue with controls of video element
I just found that when activating the controls as mentioned above, on macOS in safari the background of the controls stay visible. See screenshots below. Even on the initial loading of the tour.

Confirmed in original Quaranta skin
This could be an macOS thing since it is not visible on my Oculus Quest browser nor on my iPads and iPhone. I reproduced this with original Quaranta skin only modifying the options: loop and controls checkboxes of the video player element.
