Pano2VR 4.5beta2 Pro - Tags action activation

[abgestumpft]

Hi,

I'm currently creating a Tour with Pano2VR 4.5beta2 Pro through a house.
Right now I'm using four tags (two of them always assigned to a panorama)
EG - 1st Floor
UG - Ground Floor
2013 - Room in 2013
2014 - Room in 2014

E.g. a room in 1st Floor in 2013 has obviously the two tags: EG and 2013 assigned.
I use those tags in the skin editor trigger an action for the map:
EG - UG tags: they change position of the map container so either maps of UG or EG are shown
2013 - 2014 tags: they set position of the marker nodes container so either the hotspots from 2013 or 2014 are shown on the map.

While I'm moving through the house via polygon hotspots in the panorama this works really fine.

But when using the marker nodes on the map this does not always work.
After some testing I think this is what happens: the action behind a tag is only triggered when the tag changes from one panorama to another.
E.g.
-moving from EG 2013 to EG 2014 will only trigger the action behind tag 2014.
-moving from EG 2013 to EG 2013 triggers no action at all.

So, as said, while navigating through Hotspots in the panoramas this works OK.

But in such a case this does not work:
-User is in a EG 2013 room
-User changes map via map controls to UG 2014
-User moves to another EG 2013 room by using a polygon hotspot on the shown panorama

Then the map will not change (back to EG 2013 -> still on UG 2014), because he's moving from EG 2013 to EG 2013 and no tag changes.


Another scenario
-User is in a EG 2013 room
-User changes map via map controls to EG 2014
-User moves to UG 2013 room by using a polygon hotspot on the shown panorama

In this case the map changes to UG 2014 (because from EG 2013 - UG 2013 only the tag UG has changed)

Not easy to explain, but I hope the behavior is now clear.
I would expect that an action behind a tag is always triggered. But maybe this behavior is intentional because this could lead to other strange problems.
Is it somehow possible to always trigger an action behind a tag? E.g. by a system setting like "Always trigger action behind Tags"?

Hi Dave,

thanks a lot for your quick reply.

Here are the additional Infos:
-OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
-Browser: Firefox 28.0 and Internet Explorer 11.0.7 (same behavior in both Browsers)
-Output: HTML5 and Flash (same behavior)
-Internet URL: currently the project is only locally on my PC, but I will try to make it available for testing

I was able to create and upload preview version (Panoramas them self only contain white background with the polygon hotspots).
For 2014 are only two Panoramas in UG available so far.
