Why are these new behaviours considered to be better?
It appears that the behaviours of the Map and the Thumbnails have been changed in Beta 7 from the way they behaved in Beta 6.

APT beta 6 version: the behaviour is exactly the same - map is open on pano per default. I tested it on separate pc...

I was one who requested that the thumbnails should 1st show for 10 sec then auto disappear
I want to ask whether others use thumbnails as the only means of navigating to another pano in a tour or whether they also use hotspots?
If you do use thumbnails alongside hotspots can you envisage having the option to only have thumbnails for some panos and not others - I think I would like the option to choose which panos are represented by thumbnails rather than having all the panos in a tour represented by thumbnails.
I have found the auto scrolling thumbnail 'panels' I've seen in some tours quite difficult, and rather counter-intuitive to control, especially those that seem to scroll faster the further the cursor is moved from the central location - perhaps a 'slider/scroll bar' to let the user control scrolling would be better?

the mouse cursor on thumbs stop the auto rotation

The reason is simple thumbnails are less obstructive, hot spot done in a nice way can also be good but we don't have much options as yet in APT 1.1
What additional hotspot options would you like to see?

hotspot library / gallery to choose
ability to change size/color/transparency of hotspot
I can just type an arrow (with certain fonts) which I then should be able to fine tune as per the location background
basic animation move arrow to left>> right, or up & down (it could be any shape)
animation speed option (not sure this can ever be implemented within APT)
