Hello Klaus

I'll be purchasing the krpano licence shortly and will probably have a lot of questions to ask.

My first one, however, is to know how i can disable vertical movement like the user did on this page : http://testsite.marlincreek.com/index.ph…:pano&Itemid=60

The reason I'm asking is simply because I am struggling to get the top and bottom of my spherical images to work using autopano.

Thanks in advance for your response.

Hello zbra,

For the pano that you linked to... I am using a cylindrical pano and not a spherical one. I was also using a beta version of krpano that supported cylindrical panos.

You can find the latest beta version that supports cylindrical panos here...
http://www.krpano.com/forum/wbb/index.ph…tID=659#post659

... with documentation for the xml structure for cylindrical panos here...
http://www.krpano.com/forum/wbb/index.ph…ID=120&pageNo=1

In autopano you can crop the image in preview mode and only render the image portion that you want to show. If you need help with autopano I would suggest posting information about the image (with samples if possible) to there forum... I've found them to be very helpful in helping users resolve any issues.

Good luck and welcome to the krpano community. *smile*

I think you can also use the <view> node in the xml file to limit the view in case you don't want to crop the pano before (or after) rendering it...

http://www.krpano.com/docu/xml/#view

You would have to set the "vlookatmax" attribute to set the correct limit and then...

	Quellcode
1 2 3 4 5 6	<view ... vlookatmax="your_value" limitfov="vlookatmax" ... />

Edit: I have not tried this approach... so, consider it theory on my part. One issue that I could see... if you have a truly spherical pano and just want to hide the non-working top/bottom portions of the image, then this could work.... if you've cropped the image down to a "cylindrical" then use the format called for in the beta release documentation.

Hi,

thanks! Graydon has explained it already right

use the 1.0.8 beta Version, which supports partial panos,

or expand the image to full 360x180 and limit the view to
the visible area in the xml with, e.g.:

	Quellcode
1	<view limitview="range" vlookatmin="-90" vlookatmax="+60" />

best regards,
Klaus

Limit vertical pan down

Hi,

How do you limit the vertical pan so the tripod hole isn't visible? I've tried "limitview="lookat"", but this still makes the tripod hole visible when zooming out.

Thanks,

Dave

Hi,

for example with:

	Quellcode
1	<view limitview="range" vlookatmax="75" />

(but you should use the 1.0.8 beta version for this)

best regards,
Klaus

How to limit panning in a single scene of a virtual tour?

My developer went AWOL and I'm stuck trying to figure out how to limit panning for individual scenes in a virtual tour.

The virtual tour contains an XML file that controls all of the scenes. Here it is in it's entirety:

Quellcode

<krpano version="1.0.8"> 

<plugin name="demo" url="demo.swf" /> 

<display details="24" 
movequality="LOW" 
stillquality="HIGHSHARP" 
/> 

<view hlookat ="0" 
vlookat ="0" 
camroll ="0.000000" 
fov ="80" 
fovmin ="40" 
fovmax ="130" 
limitfov ="true" 
fisheye ="0.00" 
fisheyefovlink="0.00" 
stereographic ="false" 
architectural ="0.0" 
architecturalonlymiddle="false" 
limitview ="lookat" 
hlookatmin ="0.000000" 
hlookatmax ="360.000000" 
vlookatmin ="-90.000000" 
vlookatmax ="90.000000" 
/> 
<control usercontrol ="all" 
mousetype ="moveto" 
movetocursor ="arrow" 
cursorsize ="10.0" 
mouseaccelerate="1.00" 
mousespeed ="10.00" 
mousefriction ="0.80" 
headswing ="0.00" 
keybaccelerate ="0.50" 
keybspeed ="10.00" 
keybfriction ="0.90" 
keybinvert ="false" 
mousefovchange ="1.00" 
keybfovchange ="0.75" 
fovspeed ="3.00" 
fovfriction ="0.90" 
keycodesleft ="37" 
keycodesright ="39" 
keycodesup ="38" 
keycodesdown ="40" 
keycodesin ="16,65,107" 
keycodesout ="17,89,90,109" 
/> 

<contextmenu fullscreen="true"> 
<item name="item1" 
caption="Normal Projection" 
onclick="set(view.fisheye,0); 
set(view.architectural,0); 
set(update,view);" 
/> 
<item name="item2" 
caption="Fisheye Projection" 
onclick="set(view.fisheye,0.35); 
set(view.architectural,0); 
set(update,view);" 
/> 
<item name="item3" 
caption="Architectural Projection" 
onclick="set(view.fisheye,0.0); 
set(view.architectural,1.0); 
set(update,view);" 
/> 

<item name="item4" 
caption="KRPANO" 
/> 

</contextmenu> 
<progress showload="bar(midbottom,170,10,0,180,shaded, 
0x000000,0x666666,0xAAAAAA)" 

Showwait="none" /> 
</krpano>

The tour also contains a folder which houses separate XML files for each scene. Here's a sample of one of them, in it's entirety:

Quellcode

<krpano version='1.0.8' onstart='lookto(0,0,80);' > 
<preview url='../images/004.jpg' /> 
<image type='CUBE'> 
<front url='../images/004_f.jpg' /> 
<right url='../images/004_r.jpg' /> 
<left url='../images/004_l.jpg' /> 
<back url='../images/004_b.jpg' /> 
<up url='../images/004_u.jpg' /> 
<down url='../images/004_d.jpg' /> 
</image> 
</krpano>

I'd like to insert something like this:

Quellcode

 <view hlookat ="0" 
vlookat ="0" 
camroll ="0.000000" 
fov ="80" 
fovmin ="40" 
fovmax ="130" 
limitfov ="true" 
fisheye ="0.00" 
fisheyefovlink="0.00" 
stereographic ="false" 
architectural ="0.0" 
architecturalonlymiddle="false" 
limitview ="range" 
hlookatmin ="0.000000" 
hlookatmax ="360.000000" 
vlookatmin ="-50.000000" 
vlookatmax ="70.000000" 
/>

You might guess why I'm trying to do this...yep...I forgot to shoot the zenith shot in one of the scenes *whistling*
