In order for the radar on the plan to correctly show the direction of view and when
navigating through the tour while maintaining the direction, you must first orient the
center of the panoramas to the “north”.
You can do this in advance:
When assembling panoramas.
In the native editor "krpano Tools"
If you have already done this, skip this section.
By default, the center of the panorama is the zero point (0 degrees horizontal) and is
considered "north"
On plans and maps, north is at the top by default.
The default direction of the "radar" on the plan is up (to the north) and its value is 0
degrees, which corresponds to 0 degrees in the panorama (center of the panorama)
prealign - Enables alignment editing mode. A crosshair and horizontal angle
indication appears.
Rotate the panorama so that the crosshairs point to the “north” in the panorama, click on the
angle indication or spacebar, the Center of the panorama will be reassigned.
Look at the example on youtube
.
It often happens that it is inconvenient to align to the north; it is at an angle to the walls.
It is much more convenient to align perpendicular to walls, openings, etc.
Choose an alignment direction that is convenient for you, such as perpendicular to the wall.
Align all panoramas in this direction.
Because now the zero point of the panoramas is not north, make a correction in the compass.
Grab the compass strip at the top of the screen and move it until it aligns with the real north
direction.
See example at youtube
.
