An editor user is able to create 2D overlays in spheric images.
A 2D overlay is can be positioned with 2D coordinates in a spheric image (360 photo, 360 video, snapshot 360, IMV1).
In a spheric image, the user can click on the ‘Create an overlay’ button.
The user must give it a name.
The user will choose the position of the 2D overlay representation in the sphere by rotating the image around the central position of the 2D overlay representation, or by using the 3D axis to translate the 2D representation in the sphere.
The user may choose a 2D representation (3D representations are not allowed for 2D overlays). This is the object that users see when they access the spheric image or when they teleport to the 2D overlay.
By default the 2D representation is the TotalYmage icon.
There are several types of representations :
– Text : the user can write a text in an editor
– 2D image : the user can upload a .jpg, .jpeg, .png format image
– Gif : the user can upload a .gif format file
– Video : the user can upload a .mp4, .mov, .m4v, .avi, .mkv, .ts, .webm, .flv, .vob, .ogg, .ogv, . mpg, .wmv, .3gp format file
The user may choose a content that will be displayed when double clicking on the 2D overlay representation in the scene.
The user needs to choose a type of content :
– Text : the user can write a text in an editor
– 2D image : the user can upload a .jpg, .jpeg, .png format image
– Gif : the user can upload a .gif format file
– Video : the user can upload a .mp4, .mov, .m4v, .avi, .mkv, .ts, .webm, .flv, .vob, .ogg, .ogv, . mpg, .wmv, .3gp format file
– Word : the user can upload a .doc, .docx format file
– Excel : the user can upload a .xls, .xlsx format file
– Powerpoint : the user can upload a .ppt, .pptx format file
– PDF : the user can upload a .pdf format file
– Teleport : the user can choose an existing content (project, dashboard, scene, snapshot, snapshot 360, 2D overlay, 3D overlay) to teleport to when double clicking on the representation
– IMV1 : 360 video live camera connection – on demand
– Basler : live production line camera connection – on demand
The user will then validate the creation of the 2D overlay.
The representation of the 2D overlay will appear in the overlays list on the top right menu of the spheric image.
Once a 2D overlay is created, the user may create 2D overlays in its content (except for 3D object, Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Basler).
