I''ve managed to get a Little Planet fly in to work and I've managed to get an autotour script to work; however, when I try to put them both in the same script - no luck. My experience with xml scripting is limited so I don't know what order the pieces must be in to work correctly. Both examples I worked from start with "on start". I assume there can only be one "on start" so how would I get the tour to start when the little planet sequence is finished?

Little Planet script here:
<krpano version="1.0.8" onstart="wait(blend); action(intro)">
<action name="intro">
tween(view.hlookat, 67, 2.5, easeInOutQuad );
wait(3);
tween(view.vlookat, -10, 2.5, easeInOutQuad );
tween(view.fov, 80, 2.5, easeInOutQuad );
tween(view.fisheyefovlink, .3, 2.5, easeInOutQuad );
tween(view.fisheye, 0.33, 2.5, easeInOutQuad);
tween(view.architectural, .35, 2.5, easeInOutQuad);
wait(5);
set(display.flash10,on);
tween(display.details,32);
set(display.stillquality,HIGH);
set(display.stillquality10,HIGH);
tween(view.fovmax,120);
</action>

Autotour script here:
<krpano onstart="setuptour();">
<action name="setuptour">
set(step,1);
set(idletime,4);
set(events.onidle, autotour() );
</action>

<action name="autotour">
oninterrupt(break);
if(step == 1, lookto(67,-10,95,linear(10)); inc(step); );
if(step == 2, wait(3); inc(step); );
if(step == 3, lookto(160,-24,50,linear(20)); inc(step); );
if(step == 4, wait(2); inc(step); );
if(step == 5, lookto(165,-2,100,smooth(20,20,20)); inc(step); );
if(step == 6, wait(3); inc(step); );
if(step == 7, lookto(240,-15,90,smooth(20,20,20)); inc(step); );
if(step == 8, lookto(240,-15,60,smooth(20,20,20)); inc(step); );
if(step == 9, wait(2); inc(step); );
if(step == 10, lookto(360,-25,80,smooth(20,20,20)); inc(step); );
if(step == 11, lookto(67,-17,115,linear(10)); inc(step); );
if(step == 12, tourdone(60,-15,90,tween(3, 100.0, 1.0, linear, WAIT); );

</action>

Thanks!.That works but the auto tour is not triggered until the user moved the cursor in the screen. How can it be triggered the first time with no user intervention?

I tried to use idle event but I can't get it to work. Can you point me to an example showing how on idle is used in the xml file? The documentation shows the syntax for the events but I don't see anything about valid arguments or if you need to make some kind of call to it. I'm sure once I get more familiar with krpano's xml scripting some of this will become obvious to me.

Thanks for the tip on the Krpano examples. I wasn't even aware of that download and had never seen it before. The explanations on the home page are a bit vaauge so it wasn't clear to me that everything I need wasn't included in the Krpanotools download. Any way, I looked for an example using onidle and found this

<onidle="trace('idle event - no user interaction since ', idletime, ' seconds');"

This brings me no closer to understanding the use than I was before. From this example it looks to me like 3 parameters would be entered,. The first would be 0 if I want no user interaction needed. Would I enter the number of second sto wait for idle time then the word "seconds' in single quotes? Any example I can look at that actually use the idle event with real numbers input?

I'm not trying to figure out how to use trace. That was just what happened to be in the example for on idle I was able to find. All I'm trying to do is to do the the little planet fly-in action then after a second or 2, automatically start the stepped tour action..

I didn't figure it out. I just restated what I've been trying to do from the start.
