Changing starting point of 360 movie

[Walt]

Is it possible to change what is shown as the opening frame in a 360 movie?  I tried importing in a different order and it worked fine on my first 360 movie but on a second sequence the opening frame is 180 degrees from where I want to start the viewer.

Cheers-

My apologies for entering this question on this forum but I am not yet on the Garden Gnome forum.  I'm trying to add a map to my skin but the image of the map loads up huge and pixely.  I used a tiff and then a jpg and reduced the files to next-to-nothing but get the same results.  Am I missing something?

 

Thanks!

Walt, I think what you want is to get into the Settings button on the Create Panorama tab next to the file format dropdown box where you select to create the Quicktime VR. When you select that Settings button it takes you to the QTVR Options.  You'll see an initial field for Pan.  That's where you can specify the opening frame.  0 gets you the center of the pano as shown in the panorama viewer.  90 for me moves the opening frame toward the center of the left hand portion of the pano.  Experiment with it and the other values to get the look you want.
