I think I need a little more help with this.

I've looked through the documentation and I can't seem to get javascript to successfully communicate with the tour swf file. I'm using Panotour Pro and I have a hotspot calling a javascript function. This part is successful. What I need to do is use javascript to switch the scene in the tour. All of the documentation refers to an xml file, which I do not have. When I build my tour using Panotour Pro, I only get a swf file, no xml. The documentation refers to droplets and things like that, which create xml files. I am not using any droplets, I am using the Panotour Pro application.

I even tried to simply copy the example on the javascript interface tutorial by changing the fov, here: http://krpano.com/docu/js/. But the fov doesn't change.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

My embed code is simply:

embedpano({target:"panoDIV",swf:"/condo2.swf", wmode: 'transparent'});

And in the tour, I have a hotspot calling the javascript function switchscene('test')

That function is simply:

function switchscene(pano)
{
    console.log(pano) //outputs 'test'
    var krpano = document.getElementById("krpanoSWFObject");
    console.log(krpano); //outputs the embed object
    
    // this stuff doesn't work:
    var fov = Number( krpano.get("view.fov") );
    fov += 10.0;
    krpano.set("view.fov", fov);
}

That did the trick. I have a bunch of xml files now. (Yes, I am registered and licensed)

So I should be able to call loadpano or loadmainpano and send it an xml file?

Is there a way to change how the generated xml files are named?

I know nothing of javascript useage but in his earlier post Gerald suggested:

"If you want to load a new panorama, instead of calling the standard krpano "loadpano" action, I suggest you to call our "mainloadpano" action. This action will do the call to "loadpano", but also will do some other calls to "close the objects" that may be opened in the current panorama.

Thanks. I got it working. I had to also set a restricted web domain in the build settings.

Ah, yes.

Do you have anything on line to demonstrate your javascript stuff?
