To create a menu and configure its parameters, you need to write code, but using simple settings and commands you don't need deep knowledge of krpano coding. The structure of the menu is pretty simple, you can find sample code here.

But if you want to make your work easier, there is an additional plugin "menu editor", which has a user interface and allows you to create, edit, and assign actions to menu buttons without writing code. More detailed information here.


How to connect the plugin.

To connect the menu, place the "menu" folder in the root folder with the tour.

Write mostly xml:
<krpano .... >
   <include url="menu/plugins/menu_sm.xml" />
    .
    .
</krpano>



By default, the menu is created automatically as a "thumbnail bar".
To create your own menu structure set in the file: style_menu.xml - auto_menu="false" !
To create a menu, you need to write down the elements, renaming them according to a certain scheme. The numbers in the name determine the position of the item in the menu (menu_ №… _ №…_ № ), for example: name= "menu_1_2_3" means that this is the third line in group 2, group 2 is the second line in group 1, group 1 is the first line in the start menu list.

An example of the use of syntax / XML. File list_menu.xml
<krpano >
<menu_v name="menu_1" title_1="Menu 1"/>  	
   <menu_v  name="menu_1_1" title_1="Menu 1-1" click="Test(Menu 1-1);"/>  
   <menu_v  name="menu_1_2" title_1="Menu 1-2"/> 
      <menu_v  name="menu_1_2_1" title_1="Menu 1-2-1" click="Test(Menu 1-2-1);"/>
      <menu_v  name="menu_1_2_2" title_1="Menu 1-2-2" click="Test(Menu 1-2-2);"/>
      <menu_v  name="menu_1_2_3" title_1="Menu 1-2-3" click="Test(Menu 1-2-3);"/> 
<menu_v name="menu_2" title_1="Menu 2" click="Test(Menu 2);"/> 	  
</krpano>
	
This example shows a menu creation entry with two lines at the beginning of the menu (menu_1, menu_2), the first line (menu_1) opens a group of two lines (menu_1_1, menu_1_2). The second row (menu_1_2) in the group opens the next group of three rows (menu_1_2_1, menu_1_2_2, menu_1_2_3). The depth of attachments is 3.
n the example, the Test (text); action displays text on the screen. Look at the result.

Types of buttons.

1.Button "string".
You can assign an action to click on the button (opening a scene, changing the viewport, opening an information window, etc.).
After clicking on the button, the text of this button becomes translucent-an indication that this button was pressed.

2. Group header.
It is intended for opening a group (buttons nested in it). The group must have one or more buttons. A button in a group can trigger an action or be the "header" of another group that, in turn, it can also contain "header" buttons. The depth of attachments is not limited. A marker (arrow) appears on the "title" button on the right. When you click the button, a window with the group that belongs to it opens. Additionally you can assign an action to the button.

Types of button design:
1. Container.
By default, the button is of the "container" type. This is a layer with border, fill, shadow, transparency settings, etc. By default, the fill color changes when you hover the mouse (назначение можно изменить).
2. Thumbnail.
The button is assigned an image (thumbnail). The thumbnail image is set to 100% of the button width, the height is set in proportion to the image. If the button height is less than the image height, the image adjusts to the button. A text bar is created at the bottom of the thumbnail. When you hover the mouse, the background of the text is highlighted. Clicking on the thumbnail sets the marker (views) in the upper left corner. You can use this button to open scenes, photos, etc.
3. Picture.
Set your button image, gradient or texture drawing, etc. By default, the "style" is set to crop the image on mouse hover "crop"
For example, using " crop" by default, the lower half of the image will be displayed, and when you hover over the button, the upper half will be displayed. You can configure these parameters as you like.

Icon.
You can add icon to the button, it is set before the text. The icon size can be adjusted individually for "header" and "row".

In the style_menu file.xml specifies various parameters that will allow you to create individual menu design.
The plugin provides code for opening a scene load_m(name scene); enter the name of the scene to open in parentheses. You can assign this code to any button.
