Skin Editor - using multiple drop-down / thumbnail menus

I've completed a tour of a university leisure complex that is split into various zones. At the moment, the tour uses the "cloner" drop-down menu and thumbnail slider to show all scenes:

However, the client wants the centres zones replicated in the tour so that the user can chose to view the particular scenes within each zone. Is it possible to "tag" scenes so that they only appear in specific drop-down menus using the "cloner" tool?

Hi Stu,
Yes using Tag's you can filter nodes in both dropdown menus and the thumbnail slider.
You would use a set value action to the cloner with the tag.

So as an example you could have a dropdown menu inform of the thumbnail slider.
The menu has zones, select a zone and the thumbnail slider then shows the panos in that zone.

Also in your example I can't click and drag the slider for the thumbnails, is something covering it?
Cheers,
Hopki

Got a working example for us Simpletons...? I was going to use multiple mini skins, like here: http://www.360imagery.co.uk/host/USIC/index.html

Nope (only a "screen tint" opaque rectangle) and seems to be working for me on desktop & iOS....?

taking this one stage further, can I replicate the drop-down action in the top-right of the original tour I did some years ago - whereby the drop down lists the kit specific to each scene?: http://www.360imagery.co.uk/virtualtour ... /start.php

This was originally done using "regular expressions" like this - which gets tedious....

...so I'm looking for an easier way to have a text-based drop-down list using User Data fields - is this possible...?
