Vtour reset view button.

Hello every one!

I'm using the tool make tour (multires). From what I could understand about scripting and programming, the generated tour.xml, let's say, calls the skintour.xml file.

So the thing is that I added a button in the skintour.xml file to reset the view like this:

Now the thing is that this is working like a charm but the problem i'm experiencing is that each scene of my virtual tour could have different vlookat hlookut or fov.

How can I get those value from the tour.xml?

Actually in tour.xml each scene does have something like this:

Any help would be really appreciated.

Best regards

Hi,

there are two possibilities:

either store/save at 'start' of each scene the current/startup 'view' setting in custom variables,
e.g. by using an action like this:
Code
```
<action name="save_startup_view">
  copy(startup_hlookat, view.hlookat);
  copy(startup_vlookat, view.vlookat);
  copy(startup_fov, view.fov);
</action>
```
and calling it in the 'onnewpano' event (see the vtourskin.xml)

or create a custom xml element inside each <scene> with the startup/home view informations,
e.g.

Code

<scene ...>
  <view ... />
  <startupview hlookat="..." vlookat="..." fov="..." />
  ..
</scene>

and then in your reset button 'onclick' event, use these variables,
e.g. either

Code

onclick="lookto(get(startup_hlookat), get(startup_vlookat), get(startup_fov)); ... "

or

Code

onclick="lookto(get(startupview.hlookat), get(startupview.vlookat), get(startupview.fov)); ... "

best regards,
Klaus
