Pano2VR 7.1.9 Release

Pano2VR 7.1.9 Released

Today we’ve released Pano2VR. 7.1.9. This minor update adds support for the new Places API for Street View. 

Google Maps added a new API, Places API (New). If you are using your own API key in Pano2VR, you will need to add this API to your key to upload tours to Street View.

If you’re using Pano2VR 7.1.8, the old API will still work. However, you must change to the new API once you update to 7.1.9.

If you have not added this API to your API key, then you will get an error when trying to upload to Street View:

The Places search results will also appear differently:
