  • Hotspots, moving and rotation

    Hi,

    I'm going through some old work that I want to put on my new website, and update it from another generator to use KRpano. I really like the way the new version makes responsive panos without too much effort. I've an older version of panaotour too - but I find it rather inflexible (and though I'd like to change the xml in those generated tours it's a bit obtuse)

    My first issue is that I've been struggling with vlookatmin and vlookatmax parameters and how to find them. Using the options plugin doesn't seem to help (Is there any doc for that plugin?), and the best way I've found of getting this info is using the cursorposition plugin. Is there a better way? I just need to be able to cover the nadir. Be great if there was an equivalent diagram like the one in this thread for vlook (or even in the doc?)

    I'd like to be able to rotate a view after the hotspot has changed position.
    I've found linkedscene_lookat (Though I can't find that in the doc!), but this doesn't do any smooth rotation. I have the tour starting using a moveto action, so the initial view rotates to show a hotspot. Ideally I'd like to be able to do a smooth zoom into the hotspot, change scene and then rotate that scene - there must be an example of this somewhere?

    Finally, the default vtourskin has onclick events in the skin style. If you want to do different or additional onclick events to those defined in the skin, can these be added in the tour.xml (and will they override the vtourskin.xml?), should you modify the skin onclick (don't really want to do this as the onclciks may be tour specific), or what is the best technique?

    Thanks....

  • common js file

    OK - I worked out how to create a single .js file, using krpano tools.

    But when I specify this in the config file, it doesn't make any difference.

    Code
    htmltemplates_js=../viewer/myjsfile.js

    still becomes

    Code
    <script src="xml/salon.js"></script>

    in the resulting html file


    In addition, I still seem to get .swf files, which I don't want. I've specified the following in the config file

    Code
    #outputflash=falsehtml5=true

    I can't find any documentation for these parameters (obvious thought it seems. The terminal output also says

    Quote

    Output: Flash=no HTML5=yes


    Yet the later output says

    So why does the droplet decide to produce the .swf file, when it says it's not going to?

  • common js file

    Hi,

    I have a requirement to make a series of html files, each with a single panorama in them, and some hotspots in each file. These hotspots will link together via a custom url which will display some video.

    I have done this using the Make Pano (Normal) droplet, and worked out how to edit the config files, and the generated xml to get the desired results.

    I've now made my own droplet and custom config files. What I can't see how to do is specify a name for the .js file which has the embedding script in it. I'd like it to be a single common file - it doesn't need to be named the same as the panorama/html file.

    Or do I create a single .js file from krpano.js and embedpano.js and then specify that as htmltemplate_js ?
