Panotour problem with iphone - fullscreen not available

by rfcctba » Sun Jul 09, 2017 6:47 am

Hi there,

I am in the final steps to finish a VT but having compatibility issues with iPhone such as not going to fullscreen. I only found a post discussing this issue, it says there are two solutions but one isn't available and the other doesn't work.

The solutions are available in this post (viewtopic.php?f=91&t=21831&hilit=fullscreen+mobile):

The first solution (viewtopic.php?f=64&t=20589&hilit=fullscreen+ipad) says "You are not authorised to read this forum." - Why?

The second solution has a code that forces fullscreen to work on iPhone/iPad (viewtopic.php?f=92&t=21783&hilit=fullscreen+ipad). But it brings issues on the control bar skin - this is the link showing the issue: https://1drv.ms/i/s!AqFl3VmRUGgor0yU09zv8fjdyPod

Is there any another way to show full screen on iPhone/iPad?

Couldn't the tour start on full screen in such devices? or in any device?

Let me know pls, thanks.

I have fixed the way the bottom bar looks, it is right now, but at iPhone/iPad the space for the button is there but not full-screen button showing.

Any ideas to implement full-screen on Apple devices?

I have created a fullscreen button by using the Simple Button plugin - but it also didn't work.

Any ideas? Can't the tour start on fullscreen?

Thanks

Is your tour in an iFrame? What is the URL to the tour?

the tour will be in a button/widget then it will pop-up in an iframe. I got the tour going fullscreen if the iPhone is on its side but it may not happen inside an iframe.

I am running in a web server, I can give you the link in a private msg. is that ok?
Thanks

Has a solution for this become available yet? I have tried all these including the simple button idea and am not getting full screen on IOS.

The control bar button is removed when it is not available or unsupported. http://caniuse.com/#feat=fullscreen

When you display the tour in an iFrame with the tour on a different domain, fullscreen will definitely not be available because of iOS restrictions. http://www.kolor.com/wiki-en/action/vie ... _mobile.3F

Is there a solution if the VT is not displayed via an iframe option?

The issue we are having is we need to use the capacitive button on Cardboard 2 to interact with the screen to activate the livepanos. Because the address bar is still visible, depressing the button activates the keyboard.

Any alternative options out there?

Any solution is welcome.

Obviously, safari allows full screen but the capacitive button will play one livepano while depressed but will revert to standard view no matter when it is released. This effectively means only one livepano can be accessed in VR mode.

Here is a link to the Splash page and VT:

Click on an icon to jump to that location in the VT - then activate VR (if you are interested).
