What is the cube face size and what is the best setting for good image quality?

Skin Editor
The loading bar for the next panorama does not appear.
In the skin editor, add the following action to the existing loading bar:
Source = Reload; Action = Show Element; Target = $self
Must I add a skin to every panorama within a virtual tour?
No, for Flash virtual tours, projects with multiple SWF files, you only need to add the skin to the first, opening panorama.
Flash Output
On Flash output, does Pano2VR convert the image to sRGB color space?
No. Pano2VR does not convert the color space of the Flash output. Flash only supports sRGB. To avoid seeing any color shift, be sure that the images imported into Pano2VR are in the sRGB color space.
What are the recommended settings for sound files?
Only MP3 files can be used. We suggest encoding your audio with a sample rate of 44.1 kHz and a bit rate of at least 192 kbps. For more information on this subject, please refer to the documentation.
Why are the links not working?
The Flash security settings don't allow local access to files or links to external website. You need to upload the panoramas to a web server or change the local security settings and allow Flash to access your files [1].
Why is the Fullscreen button not working?
In order for the fullscreen button to work, you need to set the parameter "allowFullScreen" to "true" in your HTML file (see here). The HTML file export in Pano2VR produces the proper file. To export the HTML file, go to the HTML tab and choose Enable.
Why is my large image only partly loaded?
When loading gigapixel images, it's possible to run out of temporary memory on your system's temp directory. This is evident when only a part of the image is visible in the main project window. Go to the Preferences/Settings and change the Image Cache Location to a hard drive with more available space.
HMTL5 Output
I'm using SVG images, but on playback the images are missing (icon with blue box and question mark). What's wrong?
The problem here is that your website reports the wrong MIME-Type for SVG files. Please have a look at our documentation for the solution.
