Another solution: Use mod rewrite to redirect all request for "tour.js" files to one single new file. Than it doesn't matter how many hundreds tours you have. Everything is up to date in a minute.

I activated mod_rewrite, ok for that. Now, sorry for the dummy question: how would I create a new tour.js working for all of my panos?

Now fingers crossed that you didn't block offline usage.

On localhost, I get a "FATAL ERROR: LICENSE ERROR: NO LOCAL USAGE", So I assume that I blocked offline usage... sigh.

OK great! I try on localhost. Thank you!

Thanks for your reply, Tuur!

I've around 200 tours on my website so it would be quite a lot of work to go into each of them, if not impossible with the time constraint. I'd be happy to know whether:

1- there is a way to test the new configuration even though my domain name is pointing elsewhere. (maybe on a localhost?)

2- everything in principle should work just fine once my domain name will point to the new IP address.

Dear krpano staff,

I need to migrate my website with all my krpano works. Before pointing my domain name to the new server, I want to test the website to see if everything works ok. So, instead of browsing my website as "HTTP://my_domain_name.com/blabla", I browse it as "HTTP://my_ip_address/blabla".

By doing this, everything seems ok except when I need to load a krpano work, in which case I get a "FATAL ERROR: LICENSE ERROR - WRONG DOMAIN."

Now, I must confess that it is some years that I lost contact with my website and krpano, and I'm wondering whether this is normal. Is it because I am using the IP address (and not my domain name which is currently pointing at an other server) and I probably used krprotect? Or I need to change something in the configuration files?

Thank you.

Dear krpano enthusiasts,

Asking around to random users of my website, I've realized that not all of them understand that they can use the keyboard arrows to move inside the pano.

Therefore, I'm wondering whether in krpano there is some builtin function that somehow shows users that they can use both the keyboard and the mouse to see the pano.

Thanks

Thank you, it works!

Dear krpano enthusiasts,

In my vtour, I'd like to remove the "Hide control bar" icon which appears in the standard control bar created using the vtour droplet (it's the rightmost icon) -- so that the control bar is always visible there. How can I do that?

Thank your very much for your clear and nice answer!

Ok, encrypting xml only everything works, thank you. But if I cannot encrypt the tiles, then what's the purpose of encrypting? I mean, I want to protect the tiles... I want to avoid the situation that somebody downloads the tiles and reuse them.


(I'm not sure but probably google maps encrypts tiles as well?)

Hi krpano enthusiasts,

I'm using the "Encrypt Tool" inside my (registered) krpano Tools 1.19-pr5. Specifically, I added a folder, unchecked the "Backup original files" option and then clicked on "Encrypt Files". Yes, files are encrypted now! Then, I load the pano in my local web browser but I don't see anything and the javascript console of my browser says "Uncaught ReferenceError: embedpano is not defined".
Without encryption, everything worked just fine.

So what I am doing wrong this time? Maybe I should use my license file somewhere?

It seems to work like this, thanks (again)!

Great, thank you! It seems to work better now.

Thanks Umalo. Though it does not seem to work. At least on my Desktop I don't see the control bar (even if I replace 'Normal' with 'Desktop').
Actually you mention something I was not aware of: the "if" tag and the condition. What does === mean? Where can I find a documentation for this type of conditions that I'd like to learn about?

Hi krpano enthusiasts,

I have a question about events. Suppose that in my xml I define a hotspot

<hotspot name="spot1"
...
 onclick="js(checkclick(1););"


         />

<events  onclick="js(checkclick(0);)" />

Dear krpano enthusiasts,

In my vtour, I'd like that mobile users do NOT see the control bar and that non-mobile users do see it.
Suppose that I want to do this via javascript (thus the JS variable 'ismobile' tells me if a user is mobile or not) and that for both mobile and non-mobile users I load the same xml file.

How can I achieve that?
How can I disable the control bar for mobile users?

Thanks.

A related question is : Removing bottom control bar

You're right: to make it work I added %SWFPATH%. In my specific case, %SWFPATH%/panos/2.tiles/pano_l.jpg
For the multires something has been said here: How to preload panorama source images?

It was my fault: with z-order properly set, it works. Refreshing the page, probably the browser was looking at data saved in its cache!

Thanks again for your input.

There is already a post very well related to my question : How to preload panorama source images?
where it was suggested to use this code:

<action name="preloadimage">


  <!-- 1. parameter = internal ID,  2. parameter = url -->


  addplugin(pre_%1);


  set(plugin[pre_%1].visible, false);


  set(plugin[pre_%1].onloaded, trace(preload %2 done);removeplugin(pre_%1) );


  set(plugin[pre_%1].url, %2);


  trace(starting preloading %2);


</action>


<action name="preloadpano1">


  preloadimage(pano1_l, pano1/cube_l.jpg);


  preloadimage(pano1_f, pano1/cube_f.jpg);


  preloadimage(pano1_r, pano1/cube_r.jpg);


  preloadimage(pano1_b, pano1/cube_b.jpg);


  preloadimage(pano1_u, pano1/cube_u.jpg);


  preloadimage(pano1_d, pano1/cube_d.jpg);


</action>
 <events onloadcomplete="preloadpano1();" />

This actually seems to work but this solution was written on January 11th 2010, so I'm wondering whether this is still ok in 2016.


Thanks

Hi,

Consider a VTOUR with two scenes (so two pano images to load) and where the first scene to be loaded is scene_1. I've noticed that the 6 cube faces of scene_2 are downloaded from the server when the user click to view scene_2.

Instead, I need to pre-download the 6 cube faces just after the 6 cube faces have been downloaded (at least for my application, I know in advance that the user will have to load scene_2, so it's much better to pre-download the 6 cube faces of scene_2 while he/she is spending time on scene_1, rather than let him/her wait later).

How can I do that?

Thanks
