                      • Hotspot actions is placed in tcreator.xml
                      • tcreator.xml is the closed part of the vrTourSoft. It is contained actions that serves the correct work of the program.
                        
                      • It is possible to overwrite hotspot actions.
                      • Write the action with the same name as defined in program. Placed it in tour xml after the including of tcreator.xml
                      • Look action parameters in the original actions.
                      Actions names and parameters:
                      
                      1. Load scene with set view - loadSceneSetView(scene_name,hlookat,vlookat,fov);

                      Note:
                      
                      • Links for tcreator.xml is necessary for right work of the tour.
                      • It is possible to create custom openstyles.xml with own styles and actions. In different projects replace the default one.
                      • After tour is finished it is possible to remove classiceds.js (and link for it). It have no functions in work of ready tour.

      Container layer.
      
      • Container is the special type of layers that allows to group other layers within it.
      • You can put all types of layers inside the container:
        • image layers
        • text layers
        • other containers
      • In order to include a layer in a container, you need to assign this container as a parent for this layer.
      • The number of containers inside the tour is not limited.
      • The number of layers within the group is not limited.
      • The coordinates of the layers inside the group are calculated from the rectangle of the container.
      • The container does not produce any events.
      • The events produce the layers inside the container.
      • The container allows you to control the behavior of the group of layers within it. Set position, movement, alpha, visibie, enable, etc.
      • Add container:
        • to the whole tour

      • Any attribute can be assigned a new value via direct attribute edit.
      • All changes you will see on the screen.
      
      
      • Containers are useful to create group of buttons, custom skin, user interfaces, maps, information pages, galleries, etc.
      • The program have the expnd set of build-in actions for layers. This allows to create custom skin with various set of buttons.
      • In order to create your own skin, collect all the buttons in a container and name it customskin. In this case, you can use the pre-defind action hideCustomMenu(); in order to remove/restore all items on the screen.
      
      How to place:
      
      
      • Select layer container in top menu.

        Layer position
        
        • The position of the layer on the screen is determined by 2 parameters:
          • align
          • x and y coordinates
        • Align - the origin of coordinates.
        • The x and y coordinates are automatically calculated from the selected value of the origin.
        • x - offset x
          
        • y - offset y
          
        • The following values are available:

        • Default value - topleft.
        • The x and y shift are automatically calculated from the selected value of the origin.
        • For a layer located inside the container, the coordinates are calculated from the rectangle of the container.
        How to use:
        
        • Select align from the drop-down list.
        • Default value - topleft.
        • When you change the align value, the x and y shift are automatically calculated from the selected value of the origin.
        • Drag-and-drop layer. Or directly enter the value of x and y coordinates.
        • All changes you see on the screen.
        
        Layer parent
        
        • Parent attribute defines inside which xml node this layer will be located (what will be the parent).
        • This determines:
          • visibility of the layer in different panoramas
          • origin for layer coordinates
        • There are three possible values for parent:
          • tour
          • specific panorama (current scene)
          • container
        • Parent is the tour:
          • the layer is visible in all panoramas of the tour
          • layer position is calculated from the panorama area
          • the layer is inside specific container
        • Parent is the specific panorama:
          • the layer is visible only in specific panorama
          • layer position is calculated from the panorama area
          • the layer is inside specific scene
        • Parent is the layer container:
          • the layer inherits visibility from the container
          • layer position is calculated from the container rectangle
          • the layer is inside layer with name="tourLayers"
        How to use:
        
        
        • Select parent in drop-down list.
        • The program will place layer in the corresponding node when save.
        
        Layer parent allows you to show a layer in the whole tour, inside a separate panorama or place it inside the layers container (group the layers).
        To make the layer visible in all panoramas of the tour, select the tour as the parent in the drop-down list. This is the default value.
        To make the layer visible in single panorama, select this panorama as the parent.
        To place the layer inside the group, select container (group) as the parent. You must create container before.
