Creating Model Transitions – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Creating Model Transitions Learn how to use a 3D model to create seamless transitions between tour nodes. To use the 3D model for transitions, the model needs to be mapped to the tour nodes. For this, you need to establish camera positions. If you don’t have camera position data, you can use control points to help Pano2VR accurately place the cameras. Add Cameras First, add a 3D model to the project and select it so it is visible in the Viewer. Switch to Camera Points in Viewer Modes. Drag a tour node to its general location on the model to

Add a 3D model or Dollhouse to a Tour – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Add a 3D model or Dollhouse to a Tour Learn how to add a 3D model to a virtual tour. Works for larger landscapes, dollhouse views, or any other type of 3D model. Tour with 3D model in Viewer This workflow explains how to add a 3D model to your virtual tour. While often used for outside scenes or dollhouse views, the same process applies to any type of 3D model. In this example, the 3D model is the starting node with hotspots linking from the model to other tour nodes. Add and Set Up the Model Let’s first set

Using Custom Properties – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Using Custom Properties Learn how to create and use custom properties (extra data fields) to add your own information to nodes and hotspots. If the project requires more user data fields or parameters for hotspots, you can add them here. A Custom Property is a field you create yourself to store extra information about a node or hotspot. Unlike Tags, which are simple labels, custom properties can hold specific values (text, numbers, file names, etc.) that can be used by the skin as a variable. Example use cases: Show or hide skin/UI elements based on a value (e.g., accessibility =

User Data – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

User Data Use the User Data panel to add information about an node or image. User Data Properties User Data The following text fields are what comprise of User Data. Copy the data to all other nodes by clicking the copy to all nodes button. If more editing space is required, click the pencil button to open the Rich Text Editor. If the panoramas have Exif data, then some fields will be occupied with that data. Title Description Author Date and Time Copyright Source Information Comment Custom Node ID – Provide a custom ID for the node. Custom Node ID

Point Hotspot Properties – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Point Hotspot Properties Point Hotspots are interactive points that open websites, PDFs, videos, informational texts, and more. This article covers all the properties of a point hotspots. The hotspot properties are in the Properties Panel and appears once a hotspot is added or selected. ID The ID of the Point Hotspot. You’ll find this ID addressed in the Skin Editor and listed in the outputted XML. Pano2VR automatically assigns the IDs in consecutive order. They can be renamed. Type Choose what the hotspot should do. What you choose here affects the Link Target URL below. URL – Enter the website

Code Element – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Code Element The code element is used to apply Javascript to the skin. The code element is used to add custom JavaScript and CSS to your skin. When you add scripts with custom properties, those properties appear as parameters in the interface. The code element itself can also be saved as a reusable component. Code Element Custom Properties User-definable parameters added to JavaScript will appear here as interactive settings. These are available only when JavaScript is selected in the Code Element properties. Custom Properties added to Code Element Code Element Type Choose whether to add JavaScript code or CSS. When

3D Mesh – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

3D Mesh A 3D mesh is a digital representation of a three-dimensional object using vertices, edges, and faces to define its shape and surface. A 3D mesh is a collection of points (vertices), lines (edges), and surfaces (faces) that together define the shape of a three-dimensional object. Meshes are commonly used in computer graphics and virtual tours to represent buildings, objects, or environments with realistic geometry. In Pano2VR, a node can be a 3D mesh, allowing users to view and interact with detailed 3D models as part of their project.

Gaussian Splat – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Gaussian Splat A Gaussian Splat is a 3D rendering technique that uses point clouds and Gaussian functions to create smooth, photorealistic surfaces. A Gaussian Splat is a method for displaying 3D scenes using point clouds, where each point is rendered as a small, smooth blob (splat) based on a Gaussian function. This technique allows for fast, photorealistic rendering of complex environments without traditional mesh geometry. In Pano2VR, a node with a Gaussian Splat model provides an immersive experience by visualizing real-world spaces or objects captured with 3D scanning or photogrammetry, offering smooth transitions and realistic details.

Using Regular Expressions – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Using Regular Expressions Regular expressions let you address multiple elements within the Skin Editor with just one action. This will save time when setting up thumbnails or any other multiple element project. Learn how to address multiple elements using the following example. You’ll add four Rectangles to the skin and you’ll add regular expressions to their Target fields. What happens is that no matter which Rectangle the mouse enters, the other three will fade to Alpha 0.5. In the Skin Editor: Add four Rectangles to the skin. Name them Rectangle 1, Rectangle 2, Rectangle 3, and Rectangle 4. Set the

Logic Block Triggers – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

Logic Block Triggers Triggers are start of events for a condition of a logic block. Player Player Width The trigger is based on the width of the player. Player Height The trigger is based on the height of the player. Player Aspect Ratio The trigger is based on the player’s aspect ratio. This is helpful when you want to detect the player’s orientation. For example, if you want to check if the player is in landscape orientation (the player’s width is greater than its height), the expression would look like this: Trigger Comparison Value Operation Player Aspect Ratio > 1

PDF – Pano2VR 8 Documentation

PDF Use the PDF element to embed PDF documents in the skin. The PDF element is used to embed PDF documents in the skin. The element can feature a toolbar or not and you can allow it to be printed or not. ★ Tip  Using a Set Value action will allow the PDF element to show different files. Rectangle Background Select Enabled to show the background. Once enabled, you can change the background color (Logic Block available.). Border To disable the border, change the Width to zero (0).
