Hi

When a virtual tour is placed in a website using an iframe, if the user is scrolling down the page they can unintentionally click on an area of the tour, interrupting their progress down the page and at the same time moving the opening image to a random view. It's disorientating for the user, and also the carefully selected initial view is displaced.

Does there exist a technique to prevent this from occurring?

For Leaflet maps, or any other clipped content of this nature, the same kind of thing can happen. For that specifically, the leaflet.sleep javascript addresses the issue effectively by requiring the user to hover the cursor over the map for a second or so before it becomes active.

Thanks in advance for any pointers on this.
