  • Conditional hotspot for VR (stereo)

    Quote from Alexey Tkachenko

    Sorry, it seems I was wrong about scene re-parsing when entering VR mode. VR images are reloaded (from multires to vr-ready). So the way is to use some for(); and try change hotspots on the fly when entering VR mode.

    Hi Alexey-- thanks for looking into this for me. Basically yes, I have two hyperlinks-- one for VR and one for nonVR, so I want to make sure the hotspot keeps the VR user in VR and the nonVR user not in VR.

    I'm still new to XML-- would you mind writing out the code for a sample hotspot so I can understand how the for(); statement might be of use here? Thanks so much!

    Try using 'if" check inside the hotspot attributes. For example, you have 1 spot in a scene, duplicate it and assign

    Code
    if="webvr.isenabled == true"

    to one spot and

    Code
    if="webvr.isenabled == false"

    to another. The solution may be easier, however, that depends on what is the exact difference between your spots for VR and for normal view mode.

    Thanks Alexey but dropping that code in seems to make the hotspots disappear no matter what mode I'm in. I think the real problem is that neither 'stereo' nor 'webvr' seems to be recognized as a true/false condition that changes with VR enabled or not... gah.

  • Conditional hotspot for VR (stereo)

    Hi all,

    I have a hotspot that I need to behave in one way when in VR mode and another way when not in VR mode. As an example, I tried this kind of code:


    url.no-stereo="images/large.png"
    url.stereo="images/small.png"

    or

    url.no-webvr="images/large.png"
    url.webvr="images/small.png"


    since I've seen:

    url.no-mobile="images/large.png"
    url.mobile="images/small.png"

    as examples, but nothing seems to work. Anyone know how to pull something like this off? It's fine if they end up being two different hotspots-- I just need to make sure I can get each one to only be on in the appropriate stereo mode.

    Thanks!

    Not working for me. I'm getting the same "Local usage with file:// urls is limited due browser security restrictions!" error I would get if I were opening the file on my desktop computer. I also tried downloading Firefox on my iPhone, but it doesn't seem to open with it. Am I missing something?

    Thanks.

    Ha! Okay never mind. Still can't get Documents working, but GoodReader works great. So... if anyone else has this problem, try GoodReader!

  • Remember orientation

    So I have a bit of a maze of an interior, full of hallways and rooms off of those hallways. It's important that a viewer doesn't get lost, and the way krpano snaps to a single orientation for every view, no matter how you approach it, is confusing for the viewer.

    Is there a way to have krpano remember your horizontal and vertical orientation when you click on a new view, and apply that same orientation to the next view?

    Thank you!
