Hello
I'm creating a skin from scratch and I can't create an image hotspot.
I want to create an information point, so that when the user opens it, the following appears:
Title
Description
Image File
With the title and description I've easily achieved it, but I can't do it with the image.
Thanks for the help!

Hi,
Have a look at this forum post: viewtopic.php?p=65296&sid=940a693104020 ... 5dc#p65296

Note it starts using Hotspot Type Image.

Thank you very much, I have downloaded the component and seeing how it worked, I have now found what I was looking for, which was the combination of 2 placeholders $(r)$(hu)
I had not understood how they worked
Now I do, thank you very much!

Hello,

How would I create a custom image (say a Tiki mug) that I could place inside the tour that would not replace the current navigation arrows but would instead open a tour node? And how could I close that tour node and resume the tour in progress?

Here's the tour in question:

Hi Jeff,
You can add a second Node Point Hotspot in the skin, and call it something like ht_node_tiki.
Now back in the viewer, for that one point hotspot choose ht_node_tiki under Skin-ID.

To build this just add a Hotspot Template in the skin, and give it the ID ht_node_tiki.
Give it the actions:
Source: Mouse Click
Action: Open Next Panorama
URL: Hotspot URL
View: Target View

You can add a tag to the panorama, and then use this tag to show a button to take you back to the previous panorama.
Use teh buttons visible logic block, then select Projects, Tag. Then if tag = xxx visible true.

The button actions would be:
Source: Mouse Click
Action: Open Next Panorama
URL: Previous Node
View: Target View

You can add as many Hotspot templates as you need, for example you can add ones of Banks, Guest House etc.
