Hi,

Zitat

customizable of course!

Why miss a new feature ... If it is customizable

Hi Klaus,

Zitat von »Hub«

Krprotect is a good idea but, if the name of the licensed by KRPANO panographer was shown somewhere in the menu, it would be rather persuasive against the idea to use a key of a stolen license.

In my point of view, this new feature would be interesting when Kprotect is not used, making the licence more save (as Hub said)... but it is less interesting when krprotect is used (the context menu is all ready customisable, so if some one need to display something...). Don't you think so?

I understand the idea to more personalize what can be stolen from the web. But nevertheless I voted for "no". I have mainly 2 reasons:

1. The language. I sell the panos only in Germany, an additional english string is not really welcome. I even have to argue for the current english strings that are not under my control.
   
2. krpano is that freely programmable that everyone can easily add as many new right menu entries as he likes (and in his prefered language). I see no reason why a shortcut to that is needed. It might be an idea to add that to one (or all) of the templates instead of hard coding the menu entry into the krpano.swf.

It should be more obvious when someone is using a license they did not purchase. But on a protected Krpano is should be our choice if we wish to display whom the license is registered to.

I tried to look at it several ways and decided that if you are going to expose the license itself on the internet, it should have some type of protection. While some may still not be deterred from stealing the license, it would be a deterrent to others.

Of course, if you do not want that information posted on your panoramas simply use the kprotect option to protect the license as was mentioned. It might help others decide to purchase the tools, which in my opinion should be purchased anyway. Now with the new image encryption, kprotect is awesome. ( not that it wasn't before)

In my opinion, you should never provide your license to your customers unless it is embedded in the .swf along with XML to prevent the use for something other than your provided tour.


As for the language issue mentioned above, can't the text be written in your language? I believe the English version would be included automatically only if you did not set up the context menu yourself.

The only issue I see is perhaps some might want the displayed name changed, such as their business name as opposed to their personal name. That would require a change in the license file by Klaus. (more work)
Perhaps someone has a different opinion.

As long as you are making changes to the license I would like to be able to cross link files if both servers are licensed. i.e. host some xml or tiles on my server that I cross link from my client's server. I have made sure my client has a license and I have one. This would allow me to make changes more quickly from my server rather than making changes and sending them to the client to upload to his server.

It would be much more useful if I could enter my client's name than mine!

Just seeing this one...

Additional food for though: This is only an issue for multi-site license. The ways it is currently sold, if you have multi-site, then you also have the tools, and KRProtect is your friend: you can easily generate a krpano.swf for all your sites and there is no need to expose your license key.

I have nothing against the idea of having the license owner in the context menu, but I don't feel it's really needed.

I voted 'yes but', but I have to say that I feel the same. Encourage unlimited license owners to protect each instance of KRPano that's uploaded.

But if client want "banding free" tour ?

i want to disable kr pano about on right click
its possible?
i have krpano Flash Panorama Viewer - Branding Free License
how can i do this?
by xml file?
