fieldOfView | SPi-V devVirtual tour of the TU Dresden campus
Submitted by k_kwiatek on November 18, 2005 - 21:09.
You are welcome to visit Technische Universität Dresden campus.
There are 53 panoramic images.
This virtual tour was created as a part of my diploma thesis. All panoramas was created with digital panoramic camera - Eyescan MM1 from Kamera and System Technik from Pirna from Germany.
This is the main webpage of this virtual tour:

Click VT HI-RES for high resolution panoramas or LO-RES for low resolution panoramas (works faster).
Aldo, you wrote me that you would like to add this VT to your 3rd party gallery. Why not ;-)
Karol
P.S. I am just designing a new virtual tour of Koniówka with new toolbar. I hope to publish it soon.
No progressive JPEG support
Shockwave (and hence SPi-V) does not support progressive JPEGs. Many of the panoramas in the LO-RES version are not displaying because of this.
I didn't know this.....
Aldo,
thanks for this tip!!!!
I didn't know this.
Sometimes I saved an image in Photoshop and your viewer couldn't read it.
Then I opened Acdsee 5 and saved it once again....and it works....
Ok...I'm going to see which panoramas aren't working.
Thanks.
One more thing...
I like the graphics used on the main webpage you link to... Why don't you use something like that on top of the tour itself, instead of the graphic I designed for the hirshhorn museum? (Not that it's not allowed or anything, it would just make more sense to me...)
New virtual tour
Aldo,
You know that it was my first virtual tour based on SPi-V.
The more experience I have with XML and SPi-V the better toolbar or design I can do. I still appreciate your work and your great viewer!!!
I would like to send you a link to my Second virtual tour of Koniówka.
Koniówka is a small village on the south of Poland. There are no tourist attractions in this place. I designed it for a lady from Chicago(USA) who used to live here many years. Now she can come back "virtually" ;-)

I know it is not a perfect virtual tour. I am open for your suggestions.
Karol
2 suggestions
2 suggestions about the (noce) border:
toolbar8
How can I correct my file: toolbar8.xml?
Toolbar starts in line 14.
I don't understand what you mean with negative height and how I can correct Gifs. You mean to make the same like frames in html comparing to uigroups in xml.
Should I change them to png?
I would like to get a toolbar like this:

There is no overlap in the corners.
Karol
gifs first
Let's fix the gifs first, the overlap should be more clear afterwards.
You wondered why there's a white border on the inside of your frame... I'm telling you the border is in the GIF's you're using. In the html page you link to above, the background of the page is white so you don't notice the white border. Open up your GIFs in photoshop, imageready or a similar tool, and reexport them with transparency.

At first
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPi-V!!!
Congratulations Aldo!!!
I exported all my gifs in toolbar with transparency.
Please see the effect:

You can remember the right bottom corner of this toolbar - there is still this this white strip (under your logo). I know that other files creates white border inside. But this border on the right is a few pixel more. You can compare left and right side of this presentation. Please have a look to the right bottom corner gif: http://kwiatek.krakow.pl/koniowka/virtual-tour/toolbar/rightbot.gif
