Polygon Hotspots

  • PCA translate all position information for each point of the selected MESH and outputs it as krpano xml code
  • You can enter a name and a style
  • You can print multiple hotspots at once
  • You can split 3 dimensional objects into several flat objects

PCA Polygon Hotspots

How to use​

  • Create your polygonal hotspot model. The object must contain polygon(s) and must be flat (or almost flat).
  • Select the object and press the Print Points3D.
  • The XML code is output in a text file in the text editor.
warning

During the process, the MESH is converted into a CURVE in order to select the correct sequence of verticies. This can cause the loss of UV-layou and materials.

So make sure that only objects that you want to use as PolySpot are selected!

Mesh splitter​

If your hotspot mesh is not flat, you can split it into several flat objects. Each face will becomes a seperate object.

  • select the model and press the Split Mesh button
  • select all splitted model parts and hit the Print Points3D button.
