Help to begin, simple panorama
Hello all,
i just found PanoSalado and is worderful and i'm very excited to use it. I think that in my case PS is offering too much features and the examples didnt' help me out. What i'm trying to achieve for now is a very simple image panorama.
I have a 1316x250 image called test.jpg, I edited the index.htm and the PanoSalado.xml file. The image is loaded but is too much zoomed and i didn't understood how control that and if i'm missing some parameter. How can i fix this?
In the index.htm file i have
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("ModuleLoader.swf", "pano", "500", "250", "9", "#000000");
so.addParam("allowFullScreen","true");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","sameDomain");
so.write("flashcontent");
//window.document["pano"].focus();
</script>
var so = new SWFObject("ModuleLoader.swf", "pano", "500", "250", "9", "#000000");
so.addParam("allowFullScreen","true");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","sameDomain");
so.write("flashcontent");
//window.document["pano"].focus();
</script>
and in the PanoSalado.xml i have:
<PanoSalado>
<layer id="PanoSalado" url="PanoSalado.swf?xml=PanoSalado.xml" depth="0" onStart="loadSpace:test">
<spaces>
<space id="test"
interactive="true"
cameraPan="60"
cameraTilt="10"
transition="tween:currentSpace.viewport.alpha from 0 over 1.5 seconds using Expo.easeIn then do spaces.onTransitionEnd"
cameraMinimumTilt="-30" cameraMaximumTilt="40"
>
<cylinder id="cylinder_test" segments="10">
<file id="front">test.jpg</file>
</cylinder>
</space>
</spaces>
</layer>
</PanoSalado>
<layer id="PanoSalado" url="PanoSalado.swf?xml=PanoSalado.xml" depth="0" onStart="loadSpace:test">
<spaces>
<space id="test"
interactive="true"
cameraPan="60"
cameraTilt="10"
transition="tween:currentSpace.viewport.alpha from 0 over 1.5 seconds using Expo.easeIn then do spaces.onTransitionEnd"
cameraMinimumTilt="-30" cameraMaximumTilt="40"
>
<cylinder id="cylinder_test" segments="10">
<file id="front">test.jpg</file>
</cylinder>
</space>
</spaces>
</layer>
</PanoSalado>
Thank you!!!!!!!

Hi Simius:
In your
<spaces>or<space>tag, you can add in information for the zoom. For example:cameraZoom="4"
cameraFocus="100"
cameraZoomIncrement="0.2"
cameraMinimumZoom="3"
cameraMaximumZoom="10"

Hope this helps!

Got PanoSalado?
Help to begin, simple panorama
Hello everybody,
I asked a question last week about where to begin with Pano Salado. I have not had any luck.So I tried krpano.I found krpano really easy to use, the documentation was easy to follow. You have a .swf file and and xml file. You just run the .swf file and that's it. I was able to do 2 virtual tours already, only problem is it has the "Demo" watermark in the middle. So before I decide to buy it, I'd like to try out Pano Salado first.
-So where/how do I start? I see it's simlar, swf and xml. I downloaded rev_128 from google code. Looking at this post I see that ModuleLoader.swf and PanoSalado.swf are being called however I don't know where to get ModuleLoader.swf. I see a ModuleLoader.fl, I opened this in flash and it was blank, or I just don't know how to look at it. I can see a PanoSalado.swf and a Cursor.swf.
-Do I really need to know flash if I don't plan to extend any functionality and just use it right out of the box? Right I just want the view the most basic 360 spherical panorama I could with Pano Salado. How do I do that?
I apologize if my questions have already been answered somewhere else and I just didn't look.
Simius,
I need to learn how you were able to run Pano Salado, This is the closest I could find to a very basic easy to understand example. Could you give a step by step instruction set? like download this, compile this?, I have the tools PtGui, Pano2Vr, flash cs4, photoshop, I know xml,html, javascript but no flash and action script, but I'm planning on studying it if I'm going to need it. I just need to get started..
Thanks in advance
Milo
Re: simple pano and PanoSalado
Hi Milo, et al:
Just FYI: The new PanoSalado forums are at:
http://panosalado.com/forums?func=showcat&catid=15
Sorry for any confusion, but PanoSalado now has its own home.
There is also a browse-able API:
http://api.panosalado.com
--
You should download the latest ZIP file of PanoSalado source from the GoogleCode site, as rev 128 is out of date. Zephyr is hard at work to update the SVN, so that there is no discrepancy between download and SVN. Also, we'll offer pre-compiled ModuleLoader and PanoSalado files.
Downloads:
http://code.google.com/p/panosalado/downloads/list
Please follow-up in the new PanoSalado forums -- hope to see you there!
Cheers,
Patrick
