The change log
Panotour / Panotour Pro 2.3 beta 1
Important
Many crashes were reported with Panotour/Panotour Pro 2.2.0 version on MacOS.
This version is highly recommended to all users on MacOS that faced crashed with previous version.
The regression that broke the panorama and group placement at each project opening is now fixed. Panoramas and groups are positioned correctly.
New Features
Backup project files
A new general option in the settings allows you to create a backup timestamped version of your project file each time you save it, allowing you to archive automatically your work.
PanotourMaps plugin
Add support of Yandex maps layer
Social Share plugin
Add support of Digg, Tumblr, Delicious, Reddit and StumbleUpon
Add possibility to resize the buttons displayed in the plugin
Enhanced start options
Add new start options to hide hotspots, pause sounds and pause autorotation when the splashscreen is displayed
Mouse cursor
Ability to enable/disable the default and dedicated mouse cursor
Tooltips
Add support of rounded edges for tooltips
Double Click plugin
Add possibility to zoom in on double click
Changes
HTML templates enhancements
We added some internal templates that ease the creation of HTML templates.
But all your previous custom HTML templates have to be upgraded using new internal templates.
Just take a look to the templates delivered with Panotour Pro to know which changes you need to do in your custom templates.
Gyroscope buttons in control bars
In all the control bars delivered with Panotour Pro, we added the possibility to enable/disable the gyroscope button according to the kind of devices.
Moreover, the button that enables/disables the gyroscope of the mobiles and tablets, did the opposite of what it should.
This bug was not noticeable until we did some changes in the gyroscope management templates.
So we changed all the control-bars delivered with Panotour/Panotour Pro to fix their Gyro buttons.
If you are using custom control bars and if these bars use a Gyro button based on ours you’ll have to change the code of this button.
