Hi!
Is there any good reason to place automatically the hotspots for iPad/Phone in the upper-left corner of a pano instead at the place where the hotspots for desktop are?
Basically: the use of hotspots in PTP really isn´t funny. I need white pulsing spots as usual in earlier versions - preferably without hand-coding them - but what i get are black pulsing spots on desktop and grey, nearly invisible, spots in the upper-left corner on iPads.
Choosing hotspots from the menu in PTP gives different results from what i expect to get . . it´s confuse: "hotspot_ani_white.png" gives a black spot on desktop and a off-set grey spot on iPads . .
What´s wrong here? Do we need to choose some kind of different spots additionally for the iPad version? Or do we need to write extra coordinates for the iPad-spots? Usually they´re placed identcally as the desktop-spots. I´m clueless - but i have work to do!
best, Klaus
1) regular - but black instead of white - correct placed spot on desktop
2) grey spot in the upper-left corner on iPad-pano

I changed the code - told it to use spot0.png instead of spot1.png.
The result is:
NOW a WHITE pulsing spot appears on iPads - but also in the wrong place: left-upper corner.
The BLACK spot in the desktop is the same. It´s named "spot0.swf".
How can i get it WHITE using the same name "spot0.swf"?? Where can i find it? Definitely not in the templates . . there´s only the black one.
And: how can i set the iPad-spots to the same place as the desktop-spot? In earlier versions the usually were in the very same position . .
I have a deadline . . . and, honestly, need an application which doesn´t cost me hours of try and error . . . more error to be blunt . .
best, Klaus
P.S.: i´m going to load it up right now - will take a while for the folder is about 500MB.
It´s www.360impressions.de/Wuppertal
Can provide the xml too.

hm sorry - I've no single idevice yet used nore owned. I know I'm prehistoric ignorant 
So I cant really test/verify this I think.
Liebe Gruesse,
Georg
EDIT: with USer Agend IPAD on Mozilla Browser I can verify this. difference to your screenshot is that the hotspot in top left is white and not grey...
did you review the sourcecode maybe the x,y coordinates for the hotspot is for the idevices wrong (pointing to the point we see top left corner) that would point to a ptp bug.

I succeded to change the iDevice-spots now to white. Manually by dragging a "spo0.swf" from an older pano (you know: the times most things worked right ) into the data-folder of the finished tour. But there´s no extra positioning for them in the xml . . at least i don´t find it . .
They usually used the very same coordinates as the .swf-spots. No different positioning here.

No idea anybody? I tried all afternoon and evening . . and i´m trying still, i think throughoutr the night.
Tomorrow afternoon i need to have it run on iPad with the spots in the correct positions . . . like the desktop-spots.

I did a test mobile+nonmobile tour. using as object anim (sequence) and also tested with anim (flash) for a hotspot with theme basic.
and using safari with useragent ipad gives me in both cases an well placed and pulsing hotspot (and this is also nonlogic, because flash & ipad?).
So I have real no clue how this misplacement comes from.

First i guessed when choosing the .swf spot the app would produce the correct positions for iDevice spots also.
But it doesn´t.
In my pano is used the .swf spots for desktop - but nevertheless the iDevice spots are still misplaced. I have no more ideas . .

Hello Klaus,
I reproduce your placement bug if the choosen spot is the flash one without any size set.
The solution to fix this bug is to set a size for the flash spot. Then the png sequence will be correctly placed on iPad.
But I think that the "real" solution is to use the sequence spot instead.
If you use directly the png sequence, you can directly colorize the spot sequence for the desktop tour, and there will not have any "alt" definition of the spot for iPad tours.

Hi Gérald!
Thank you - but don´t want to be forced to use a spot which neiter i nor my clients like at all. I just need to use the "classic" white and pulsing spot on desktop AND on iDevices.
Or what do you mean saying:"I think that the "real" solution is to use the sequence spot instead"?
"to set a size for the flash spot": HOW?
As i wrote in my email: when i use the "spot0.png" OR "hotspot_ani_white.png" i get the effect shown in the sreenshot below. On desktop as well as on iDevices.
best, Klaus

beides: when you see my panorama - www.360impressions.de/Wuppertal - you can realize that the Flash-spot is absolutely correct. So why change it´s size at all?
NOT correct is the spot on iDevices: it´s in the upper-left corner . .
Do you really think to solve that issue by resizing the Flash-spot?
It worked perfectly in earlier versions (t least the positioning worked). Why not in 1.8?

As i realize you changed the appearance of the "anim sequence"! I now get the spot i want . .
Sorry for not trying this spot before - i refused to use it because it was very ugly in the versions before.
Problem solved.
best, Klaus
