Q&A about the latest versions

I'd like to keep an animation in place of auto-rotate, i.e. after 5 seconds the image starts in video, animation, instead of auto-rotate.

But I've tried everything and instead of starting the animation, it always comes in auto-rotate.

What can it be?

Hi,

Couple of quick questions.

1. Is the animation you want to play looping or is it a fixed time animation?
2. Does it apply to all nodes or just a particular node?

Yes, it's a multi-node, cascading, sequential animation.

I used to do it that way and it worked very well in version 6.

Here's an example! Just wait at any node, 3 seconds and it starts.

Hi,

Great tour by the way.

So if you open that V6 project into V7 and publish it again the animation doesn't happen?

Exactly.

I've made changes and it doesn't work anymore.

What if I create a new project in 7... It only works in image 1 (the one marked as the main aperture), in the others, automatic rotation comes in.

Hi,

You say you've made changes, what happens if you take the original, before the changes and republish it through V7 do you still have errors?

I just used version 7 to update social media and stuff like that, I didn't change anything in the animation.

He just came out of the 6th and saved in the 7th.

I tried to start from scratch, create other projects from scratch, they all end up the same, having animation in the first image, then the automatic rotation in the other images.

Hi HouseTour,
If you are still having problems with this please can you send your project to support with a detailed explanation of what you would like to happen.
Pano2VR can be set up to use Animations but also Autorotation and Animations in one project, so you can have to autorotate but then have buttons for guided tours.
Regards,

Okay, I'm going to redo it in a smaller project and test it out. But I just want animation, automatic, without having to click on anything, and the animation can start on any image. I used to do it before, now only animation goes into the first image, autorotation comes in the others. Let's try that again.

Hello, greetings to friends.
So, I've made all the changes possible, but it's still the same.

The tour opens and the animation enters correctly.

Even if I manually interfere with the image, the animation comes back correctly.

But if I click on a hotspot or use the thumbnail from the menu to go to another image, then the animation stops.

Normal rotation comes in. I don't know what else to do.

I put a project made from scratch here in case you can help me.

Thank you.

Hi,

I'm downloading the file but I will not be able to take a look at it for a couple of days.

Gee, what a blunder of mine, I apologize.

Here's a new downloadable zip with the skin!

Thank you.

Hello and a Happy new year to all,

I would like to know if the problem present in this post has been solved or not. As I am having the same issue.

For context, I would like my autorotation to be replaced by an animation that when started, will jump back to the home node, and play the animation. When i was using the trial version, the animation worked fine, but now that i have the full version, it will not work unless i start on the home node and i remain there. If i change node it goes to normal autorotation and even if i return, it remains autorotation instead of the animation it is supposed to be playing

Hi,
Please find a working project attached.
It has a simple animation for each node, rotate 180, zoom in and out, then carry on to 359, then change nodes.
Note: Auto rotate is deselected in the web output properties but Animation is selected.
This stops it from starting after the delay timer, however if you want the animation to start automatically then select Auto rotate
.

The skin has a container with the action to toggle auto rotate.
The icons have visible logic blocks that show and hide the relevant icon depending if auto rotate is running.

When auto rotating you can click and interact with the panorama, the animation stops, after the delay timer the panorama will move back to where you started to interact with it, then carry on with the animation.
Regards,
