Actions

Actions or a set of directions can be applied to any element added to the skin to create interactivity.

Object Movement

Pan

This action is commonly used on buttons that have an arrow indicating left or right. Applying this action to an interactive button or image will cause the panorama to rotate to the left or right.

Type – Panning is the horizontal rotation, therefore you can only choose from Left or Right directions.

Speed – Adjust how fast or slow the movement will be. The speed is determined by a rate of degrees per frame. For example, entering the number, .40, will have a rate of rotation of four tenths of a degree per frame.

Tilt

This action is commonly used for buttons; especially ones that use an arrow indicating up or down. Applying this action to an interactive button or image will cause the panorama to tilt up or down.

Type – Tilt is the vertical rotation, therefore you can only choose from Up or Down.

Speed – Adjust how fast or slow the movement will be. The speed is determined by a rate of degrees per frame. For example, entering the number, .40, will have a rate of rotation of four tenths of a degree per frame.

Zoom

When this action is applied to an interactive button or image, the panorama will narrow or broaden its field of view respectively.

Type – Choose to zoom In or Out.

Speed – Adjust how fast or slow the movement will be. The speed is determined by a rate of degrees per frame. For example, entering the number, .40, will have a rate of rotation of four tenths of a degree per frame.

Set View State

Use this action to switch between viewstates.

State – Select the state. If you added custom view state labels to the current project (available only for multi-viewstate projects) in the Project Properties, those labels will appear here. If a project with multiple states is not opened, add the state’s number to change to.

Speed – Adjust how fast or slow the movement will be. The speed is determined by a rate of degrees per frame. For example, entering the number, .40, will have a rate of rotation of four tenths of a degree per frame.

Player Settings

Set Viewer Mode

This action sets the Viewer to either rotate or drag modes in Object2VR.

Mode – Choose a mode:

  • Rotate Mode – Change the viewer to rotate mode where the object movie will rotate as the mouse is pressed and dragged. (1)
