News in everpano 3D 1.2.0:

Amazon Web Services with S3 integration

• Create an AWS account

  You need to create an AWS account or use your current one. This is a simple and quick process, just go to https://aws.amazon.com/ and create a new account. AWS Accounts Include 12 Months of Free Tier Access, so you can test it, and see how well it performs

• Get your access key

  In order for everpano 3D to access your Amazon Web Services (AWS) account, the Access Key and the Secret Access Key are required. The Access Key and the Secret Access Key are not your standard user name and password, but are special tokens that allow the app to upload the projects to your S3 buckets.

  To find your Access Key and Secret Access Key:

  1. Log in to your AWS Management Console.
  2. Click on your user name at the top right of the page.
  3. Click on the My Security Credentials link from the drop-down menu.
  4. Click on Create new access key.
  5. Click on the Show access key, and copy the Secret Access Key, or download a csv file.

• Configure the AWS account in everpano 3D

  Once you already have created your account, you can go to everpano 3D and with the item menu Help -> Configure AWS you will get this window to input the values of your account

• Create your first bucket

  Now you are ready to create buckets so you can organize your projects, that would depend on your needs, maybe you prefer to have a single bucket for all your project, or maybe you want to divide it and have one bucket per client.
  You need to select one of the regions in the list. It should be the most close to your most audience in order to improve latency

  
  

  Important: if you already owned and AWS account, and already have existent buckets, you can synchronize them in the app in order to start using them : menu Help -> Update S3 Buckets

  

• Upload your project

  You have your S3 configuration ready, now it's time to have a finished project to upload. Once your project is done go to Project -> Upload Project to S3 or ⌘ + U in mac or Ctrl + U in windows

  

What can not be done

everpano 3D is obviously not a S3 manager, so there are some options that can not be achieved from with in the app, like creating users, assigning specific polices to buckets, and most important what can not be done from the app, is deleting. We created a simple yet powerful bridge to easily upload your projects to industry-leading web service provider.

What do I need

Some users may think they may need to configure an extra EC2 instance to upload a zip to S3 and then unzip it, or maybe some extra software, but the answer is, definitely NO, you just need your aws account and your everpano 3D app License. With that you can start uploading your projects at the speed of the light. We have performed some big upload test with the next results :

• Floor hotspots. New system to allow floor hotspots when there is no geometry in your project.
  When you create a project that does not have geometry, but has references, so panoramas are linked together, when you render that project, everpano 3D will ask if you want to give some additional usage for that tour, we have 2 options here :
  1. navigator hotspots
  2. external depthmap
  
  If we choose the first one, the navigator plugin will get configured so it can print the hotspots correctly.
  The next attributes allow to customize the aspect of the floor hotspots :

  floorspots = "true"

  floorstylesize = "20"

  floorstyleborder = "3"

  floorstylealpha = "0.6"

  floorstylebordercolor = "0x000000"

  floorstylecirclecolor = "0xfafafa"

  
  * additionally tooltips for the hotspots can be activated

  floortooltip = "true"

• Foldable attributes in edit mode
• Some minor improvements

UI improvements

• A new UNDO / REDO feature has been added to make easier the modelling tasks inside the app.
  It can be used while creating geometry, moving objects, ... the undo / redo stack is cleared every time a new panorama is loaded.
  It can not be used for adding removing panoramas & references
• Better visibility for the current selected tool
• Press ESC to cancel a reference creation (when only first point has been done)
• Shortcuts for every tool, so you can more easily / quickly change the tool
• In the open project modal, double click to open the project
• When creating a polygon or a extruded polygon you can use space to close the polygon, so you don't need to be looking back for the first point position
• Automatically check if there is a new version

New registration system

• name
• email
• order
• activation code

Latest krpano version

What's next - Roadmap

• Improved UI organization
• More features on everpano UI
• Measure tool for the tours
• 3D object generation, from the model of the project
• Floorplan creation for the navigator plugin
• Automatically linked tours
