P2VR Pro: Tags as Source of Action

[Judy-A]

Now that we can set tags, it would be nice to be able to use them as a source on the skin. Is this possible?

For example, any one of a group of panoramas that share a tag could trigger a highlight marker on a map.

Hi Judy,
You can do this already just using the node marker.
Just add a node marker to the skin, then enter in the Tour Node/Tag: the tag and use the source actions activate and deactivate.
Example:
All panoramas with ground as a tag.

Ground floor Map:
Activate => Show Element => Target: Ground floor map
Deactivate => Hide Element => Target: Ground floor map

As each pano with the tag ground is opened the ground floor map will show.

Hello Judy, hello Hopki,

I dont use Pano2VR 4 Pro yet.
How can I use Tags with Pano2VR 4 ?

And btw what are these Tags and how do I set them ?

You write: as each pano with the tag ground is opended.... Where do I set the Tag ground ?

In my case a mouse click on a navigation map should be clicked
I guess that I have to set it like this: Activate => Trigger Mouseclick => Click on the mhs_#ofthehs
then the actions should take place which are coded there, like showing the mhs_loc mark the compass red dot and the thumbnail picture o the actual pano!

AM I right thining in this direction ?

Hi,
In version 4.x open the user data and you will see where to add TAGs.
Add a Tag and then use the keyboards space bar to enter it and move to the next if required.

Then in the skin add a node marker and set the Tag name in the marker.
You can then use Activate and Deactivate actions to do something when that tag is detected.
