set orientation for Google Maps

[tom....@gmail.com]

In Google Maps, as I understand, the vertical line in the middle of the image is considered facing north. To set the correct orientation, what I usually do is to "rotate" the 360x180 equirectangular in Panorama Editor by mouse drag. But that might change the horizontal line as well. Is there an easy way to ensure only the orientation is being adjusted?

Tom, Hold down the shift key as you drag horizontally.  Or you can use the Numerical Transform tool to apply +/- yaw adjustments.

Perfect. Thanks.

Set the angle from the center of the image to the north in Metadata > Orientation, Google Maps will recognize it.
