Viewed a tour on windows 8 mobile for the first time yesterday, the combobox appears oversized, it filled the entire width of the screen. Are there any know compatibility issues with some of the plugs-ins, can this issue be resolved, thumbnails were large too:

view following tour in windows 8 on a mobile phone to see issue:

A responsive design task is scheduled for plugins.

Hi Benjamin, just wanted to let you know that the issue with the oversized plugins (combo box & simply thumbnails) on Windows 8 phones can be resolved if you use fancybox2 with the iframe option (tested on Nokia lumia 520). A client has used this on a recent tour & it resized the plugins to scale & allowed tours created in ptp2 beta 2 to load correctly on these devices.

I know you said you'd be reviewing the plug-in on these devices later, but I thought you may appreciate this feedback. Would it be possible to have an option to output a tour in something similar to Fancy box 2, I know that's licensed software, but the latest version does automatically resize the window if you switch orientation from portrait to Landscape which is quite nice & it has a close option. Could it be used as an additional plug in somehow - that would be a real help if coding isn't your strength.

Regards,

Rob
