I tried to prepare a panorama image. It was by way of croping made to look like one...:-) then i adjusted the settigs in the photo editor like:
Panorama: "Yes"
Viewerstyle: "Panorama tools java panorama" or: "Panorama tools java crypted...."
So, when i want to see this image i get an "image not available" red cross or it simply stays white but sometimes i can see the java logo. When i revert the Viewerstyle to "standard img tag" i can see it again.
I installed a fresh java 2 v# 1.5.0 and tried this out with Mozilla and IE7 in Windows XP. What conditions must be meet that this works? Did i forget to install or prepare something else?
I tried it out and this works:
Updating PTviewer viewerstyle for 2.8 (one time procedure)
1. download ptviewer 2.8 from http://www.fsoft.it/panorama/ptviewer.htm
2. place the applet ptviewer.jar (try bigger version first) in EE root folder.
3. EDIT (change) VIEWERSTYLE_pt_panorama.php to:
<?php
// VIEWER STYLE:
// PANORAMA TOOLS 2.7 VIEWER by Pekka Saarinen
// REQUIRED (NOT PART OF EE PACKAGE): download PTviewer jar from http://www.fsoft.it/panorama/ptviewer.htm and place it in EE root folder
?><applet code="ptviewer.class" archive="ptviewer.jar" width=<?php print @$PT_width; ?> height=<?php print @$PT_height; ?>>
<param name="file" value="<?php print $url; ?>">
<param name="cursor" value="<?php print @$PT_cursor; ?>">
<param name="pan" value="<?php print @$PT_pan; ?>">
<param name="fov" value="<?php print @$PT_fov; ?>">
<param name="fovmax" value="<?php print @$PT_fovmax; ?>">
<param name="fovmin" value="<?php print @$PT_fovmin; ?>">
<param name="auto" value="<?php print @$PT_autospeed; ?>">
<param name="showToolbar" value="<?php print @$PT_showtoolbar; ?>">
<param name="imgLoadFeedback" value="<?php print @$PT_imgLoadFeedback; ?>">
</applet><?php
// EOF
?>
and save.
4. Now you must add those variables into viewerstyle called "Panorama Tools Java panorama", go to viewerstyle editor and simply click "add custom variable" few times so that you have 10 custom variables there, and then edit them to:
126869
and save.
Using the "Panorama Tools Java panorama" viewerstyle
In photo editor, change the viewerstyle to "Panorama Tools Java panorama". This will enable the applet.
To change applet parameters for each panorama, select "Custom variables" from dropdown next to viewerstyle selection, and save. This will open you list of variables that control the applet. Change the values and save, on next photo page reload the new values are applied. Note that in this case you have viewer width and height in custom variables, those "width" and "height" values in size path have no effect, the size is set in custom variables.
That's basically it.
You can of course add more custom variables, there are tons of them for PTviewer, there is no variable amount limit in EE.
If you want to revert to default custom variables: disable custom variables + save, and enable them again + save.
