Hi all,
I have a navigation window that slides out when I clicked on INFO+ tab,[ button_map ]

http://www.fnd-fnd.com/media/cordes/

The problem is when I clicked on the ACTIVATED icon of the showing pano… my navigation window disappears as well as the INFO+ tab ! ;-)
What action should I add to remedy the problem ?
Thanks in advance.

Affendy

You want the map to be shown and remain shown as the viewer opens the tour for the first time?

I'm not expert at these actions at all but have you tried a slightly different method?
init position of open and then close when clicking the close button or clicking on a map location?

The Map is visible when the viewer shows the tour for the first time ;-)
I get the problem only when I click on the already "ACTIVE" icon.

The map vanished here as soon as the pano was loaded. I didn't click on anything.
I had to re-open it by clicking on the tab.

I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve with the active command, sorry. maybe others have an idea?

Rob, when you reopen the Navigation Map, try clicking on the "ACTIVE" pano icon ;-). The button on the outmost right when the tour started.

ok, goes all a bit weird then. The map slides right off the screen. I can re-open it by clicking where the info tab was.

In a way I think hiding the map on transition is natural

Once I click the map location map closes (because I do not needed anymore) and it transitions to next pano

If I need the map again.. you have shown me where to find the map.. and click open the map.

I see the "Info +" tab disappears when the red marker is clicked on the key map, it does not matter which node is active at the moment. The key map sliding to the Left out of sight is good. However, then there is a reload and unexpectedly the "Info +" tab fades to almost 98% transparency. I think it is not another action you need, but rather somewhere on your skin you have an action that occurs on reload that adjust the alpa on the "Info +" tab to nearly zero?

PS: nice tour, nice key map.

Hi Don, Thanks for the hint. I think you're right for the INFO+ and Close button do have a Show Visible action ;-)

Hi all,
any experts care to look at my .ggsk ?
My INFO+ button just vanish with the NAV MAP IF I click on the actual running pano "BUTTON"
I know there's no sense in clicking on the hotspot button of the running pano but some of my visiteurs do.

TIA

Affendy, I'm not an expert, but looked anyway. In your cordes.ggsk I notice two places where the "close button" alpha gets set to 0.1.

1. "closeBut" is a child of your map container called "nav_map". The nav_map has a "Loaded" event with "Toggle Element Alpha" action, and the Alpha toggles to 0.1. Since "closeBut" is a child of nav_map, then "closeBut" will become almost transparent too.

2. "button_map" has a "Mouse Click" event with a "Toggle Element Alpha, and the Alpha is set to 0.1 and the target is "nav_map". Since "closeBut" is a child of nav_map, then "closeBut" will become almost transparent too.

Either of those, or both, might be making the "closeBut" nearly invisible after the node marker is clicked. There might be other places I do not see.

So...disclaimer, I have never done one of those key maps that slides off the screen, so if the key map is hidden off the screen, do you still need to tweak the alpha? I think not, but I'm not an expert. My newbie recommendation is to remove the "Toggle Element Alpha" actions and you will be okay, but I will watch and learn from other replies to your post.

Hi Affendy,
There is no action to show the button_map when you click a node marker.
By the looks of it you are using the loaded actions in the nav_map element to change the position and alpha of the nav_map but no where to show the button_map, you could add the action here to show it.

However as you have a button to open the map and a button to close it I would avoid "Toggle" actions and use change element position actions instead.

Regards,
Hopki
