• Does anyone have any idea why a hotspot would function only once on an iphone?
    I have three hotspots in a tour, each opening an information panel and they all function correctly on the desktop. However, on the iphone (3 & 4), after any of them are actioned, it, and both of the other hotspots, do not work.
    Here's the tour:
    http://www.projectsolutions.es/demos/hyundai/i30/tour.html

    This is the relevant section of the xml:

    <style name="info_spot"
    url="files/hotspots/fs1.png"
    distorted="true"
    scale="0.45"
    zorder="10"
    alpha="0"
    frames="19" framewidth="64" frameheight="64" frame="0"
    altonloaded="if(isphone, mul(scale,2)); onloaded();"
    />

    <hotspot name="spot1" style="info_spot" ath="139" atv="6.75" onhover="showtext(Clique para más información, buttonstyle);"
    onclick="lookto(138,7,85,smooth(150,30,40)); if(plugin[image].visible,closeimage()); showImage(files/graphics/windows.png);rotOff()" />
    <hotspot name="spot2" style="info_spot" ath="208" atv="18.65" onhover="showtext(Clique para más información, buttonstyle);"
    onclick="lookto(208,20,80,smooth(150,30,40)); if(plugin[image].visible,closeimage()); showImage(files/graphics/sound.png);rotOff()" />
    <hotspot name="spot3" style="info_spot" ath="-80" atv="-8.75" onhover="showtext(Clique para más información, buttonstyle);"
    onclick="lookto(-80,-6,80,smooth(150,30,40)); if(plugin[image].visible,closeimage()); showImage(files/graphics/safety.png);rotOff()" />

    <plugin name="image" url=""
    alpha="0" keep="true" align="center" onclick="closeimage()" />

    <action name="showimage">
    set(plugin[image].url,%1);
    tween(plugin[image].alpha,1);
    </action>

    <action name="closeimage">
    tween(plugin[image].alpha, 0,,,
    tween(view.fov, 95,0.7,,
    set(plugin[image].url,);
    rotOn())));
    </action>

    Here's the full xml:

  • Thanks for your input sacha.

    The typo, although a stupid oversight on my part, makes no difference to the actions and neither does changing the toggle. In fact, the toggle is only there because I copied and pasted the code from another tour and didn't go through it properly... hence the typo. Even without the toggle, everthing works fine on the desktop.

    I have investigated a little further and narrowed it down to this:

    <action name="closeimage">
    tween(plugin[image].alpha,0,,,
    tween(view.fov,95,0.7);

    set(plugin[image].url,);
    rotOn()));
    </action>

    On the desktop, this action works fine. On the iphone it stops after " tween(view.fov,95,0.7); " which means the image is still there, though not visible, and blocking any further attempts to touch another hotspot.

    I know there is nothing wrong with the structure of the action because I can substitute set(plugin[image].url,); for set(plugin[image].visible,false,); and it works fine.
    Of course, this is a workaround for my problem but, I'm intrigued to know why
    set(plugin[image].url,%1); works, but set(plugin[image].url,); doesn't. *confused*

  • there are some bugs in the iphone JS where if there is a blank textfield or blank url it crashes. try "null" instead if just leaving it blank. otherwise create a 100% transparent image and use that as the dummy image. when the dummy image is visible make krpano think it is not.

    Another question would be why are you clearing out the url in the first place? I see no point in doing it.

    Well, I have to do something with it otherwise, as I said before, it blocks any further attempts to touch another hotspot and, as I'm new to this coding, I don't know any other way than set(....url,); , set(....scale,0); or set....visible,false);

    VN,
    I tried set(....url,null); but this didn't solve the problem either.
    I say 'problem' but it actually isn't anymore as I can use set(....visible,false); so I'll think I'll stick with that for now and concentrate on sorting out bigger issues. *thumbup*

    Thanks for your input.
