Different architectural setting for panoramas inside a tour

Hi,

is there a way to set different architectural values inside a tour?

for example i have a tour containing 3 scenes.

I want to set:
architectural="0.5" architecturalonlymiddle="true" for the first pano,
architectural="0.8" architecturalonlymiddle="false" for the second pano
architectural="1" architecturalonlymiddle="false" for the third one.


the problem is that if I change the pano by clicking on a hotspot, pano 2 and 3 have the settings of the first scene.

Thanks!

I'd create an event triggered on new pano:

Source code

 
1

<events name="viewevent" keep="true" onnewpano="view_check();"  />


and an action which checks scene names and set the needed view. Something like this:

Source code

 
1
2

<action name="view_check" >
if(scene[get(xml.scene)].name == scene1, set(view.architectural, 0.5); set(view.architecturalonlymiddle, true) );if(scene[get(xml.scene)].name == scene2, set(view.architectural, 0.8); set(view.architecturalonlymiddle, false) ); if(scene[get(xml.scene)].name == scene3, set(view.architectural, 1); set(view.architecturalonlymiddle, false) );  </action>




However, if there are 50 or more panos such action would be too big, so I'd count how many view patterns there are and introduced the "viewsetting_tag" tag for each pano (inside the 'scene' node) and checked this tag. E.g.


Source code

 
1

<action name="view_check" >if(scene[get(xml.scene)].viewsetting_tag == pattern1, set(view.architectural, 0.5); set(view.architecturalonlymiddle, true) );if(scene[get(xml.scene)].viewsetting_tag  == pattern2, set(view.architectural, 0.8); set(view.architecturalonlymiddle, false) ); </action>


And put this tag inside the "scene" node:

Source code

 
1

<scene name="scene1" title="entrance"  viewsetting_tag="pattern1"> ...</scene>
Regards,

Alexey

Hi,

why not simply defining a <view> element with the desired properties inside each <scene> ...?

e.g.

Source code

 
1
2
3
4
5

8
9
10
11
12
13

<scene name="pano1">
  <view ... architectural="0.5" architecturalonlymiddle="true" />
  ...
</scene>

<scene name="pano2">
  <view ... architectural="0.8" architecturalonlymiddle="false" />
  ...
</scene>


<scene name="pano3">
  <view ... architectural="1" architecturalonlymiddle="false" />
   ...
</scene>


Best regards,
Klaus
