Ok moving on and another question!

Have replaced the old code with:

<krpano version="1.0.8" logkey="true" showerrors="true" ispartialpano="true" onstart="test();">
 
 <include url="skin/defaultskin.xml" />
 <view hlookat="0" vlookat="0" maxpixelzoom="1.0" />
  <display details="22" /> <preview url="index.tiles/preview.jpg" /> 
 <image type="CYLINDER" hfov="1.00" multires="true" tilesize="616" progressive="true">  
   <level tiledimagewidth="4927" tiledimageheight="500">
      <cylinder url="index.tiles/l1_%0v_%0h.jpg" />
    </level>
 </image>
 
 <action name="test">
  oninterrupt(break);
  lookto(-0.3,,,linear(1)); 
  wait(5);
  lookto(0.3,,,linear(1));
 </action>
</krpano>

The values of -0.3 and 0.3 were a bit arbitary. I tried values from 180 downwards and came to the conlusion its using a field of view of one, and decided 0.3 either side of the mid point was a plausible value.
What I dont understand is why panning one way it scrolls nice and slowly and then the other way it zaps across?
Sorry to be a pain and thanks in anticipation again!

Ok point taken, although the file was created with "MAKE PANO (MULTIRES) droplet.bat" so it set that value.
I'll have a tinker in the morning :)
Thanks for your help :)

Ok according to me:
A Canon EOS 400D at 180mm zoom has a field of view of 7 deg 3 min 29 sec. The full resolution version of the pano is 23737px wide.
If you divide 23737 by 3888 (which is the horizontal resolution of the 400D) you get a figure of 6.1 "images wide".
Therefore the field of view of the panorama is 6.1 times that of the inividual photo and therefore is 43 degrees.
Panning 13 degrees left means that the left hand side of the screen is pretty much the left hand side of the panorama, and it pans nice and slowly that way as expected.
However panning back the other way 13 degrees does not seem to pan as smoothly leaving me confused still.
Here's the code from index.xml:

<krpano version="1.0.8" logkey="true" showerrors="true" ispartialpano="true" onstart="test();">
 
 <include url="skin/defaultskin.xml" />
 <view hlookat="0" vlookat="0" maxpixelzoom="1.0" />
  <display details="22" /> <preview url="index.tiles/preview.jpg" /> 
 <image type="CYLINDER" hfov="43" multires="true" tilesize="616" progressive="true">  
   <level tiledimagewidth="4927" tiledimageheight="500">
      <cylinder url="index.tiles/l1_%0v_%0h.jpg" />
    </level>
 </image>
 
 <action name="test">
  oninterrupt(break);
  lookto(-13,,,smooth(1,1,2));
  trace('Finished going that way!'); 
  wait(5);
  lookto(13,,,smooth(1,1,2));
 </action>
</krpano>

Thanks again for your time and assistance so far guys!

Can nobody tell me why this is wrong? I have no idea now if its my code or if there is just a bug in the software?

Well I did wonder that and try it, but Im setting the same panning speed, and acceleration and deceleration so it really shouldnt be.

Surely with smooth setting the acceleration, deceleration and maximum speed though it should just take twice as long at the same speed?

Chris,

Try using linear instead of smooth. I think that will provide the motion you are expecting.

Even when I use:

lookto(-12,,,linear(1));
  lookto(+12,,,linear(1));

It pans left nicely and smoothly then pans right at a faster speed in a fairly lumpy way.
See how it looks for you:

Thank you :)
I ammended it slightly:

<krpano version="1.0.8" logkey="true" showerrors="true" ispartialpano="true">
 
 <include url="skin/defaultskin.xml" />
 <view hlookat="0" vlookat="0" maxpixelzoom="1.0" />
  <display details="22" flash10="on" movequality10="best" /> <preview url="index.tiles/preview.jpg" /> 
 <image type="CYLINDER" hfov="1" multires="true" tilesize="616" progressive="true">  
   <level tiledimagewidth="4927" tiledimageheight="500">
      <cylinder url="index.tiles/l1_%0v_%0h.jpg" />
    </level>
 </image> <events onloadcomplete="test();" />
 
 <action name="test">
  oninterrupt(break);
  lookto(-.30,0,.10,linear(.005));
  trace('test1');
  lookto(.30,0,.10,linear(.005));
  trace('test2');
 </action>
</krpano>

And it now works fine at http://www.frozentime.co.uk/omk
I understand why if we treat the full field of view as "1" why we want to pan "0.3" either way. And I have no problem with the linear speed. I don't fully understand what the "0.10" figure does so if anyone can explain that it would be nice.
The explanation given in the manual doesnt help me understand this value.
Thanks to those who helped for your time and assistance!!!
