P2V 4beta3 - gyro auto vertical movement to match iOS device
Posted: Sun Nov 11, 2012 12:52 pm
I notice that since Pano2vr v4beta3 with the gyro mode on, using an iOS device, when the user does not give input for a few seconds, the pano automatically moves (looks up or down), in line with the orientation of the iOS device.
If the sentence above make little sense at all (sorry), then perhaps an example:
If the user puts the iOS device on a table (leaving gyro mode on), then turns the pano around using finger input, all works as expected. Then, when the user stops giving finger inputs, and simple looks at the pano, after a few seconds it will automatically start moving (vertically), and in this case it will end up looking straight down at the floor! Makes sense, because the iOS device is lying on a table, and the gyros tell the app that it should be looking down.
I think this is a wonderful feature, and most welcome! Thank you Thomas.
However, I do think some would possibly like the option of turning this feature on or off. Also, some may like to tweak the feature (for example, I would prefer if it worked a little faster, and did not slow down toward the end. IMHO it should be a 1 second movement, rapidly moving to the new point). Others may not agree with the faster speed, and may prefer slower speeds.
Please add options to turn this feature on/off, and possible to change the speed of this feature.
tks
