With this tutorial you can create different interfaces for different devices in same Virtual Tour.

All you need is a software for edit code, I advise you to use Atom, it’s free and very powerful, but even what you usually use is fine, you’ll have to edit only a few lines of code.

  1. First create the virtual tour by exporting it with Panotour Pro
  2. After exported go to the project folder and change the name of the index_skin.xml file to index_skin_desktop.xml (note:  the name before _skin.xml depends on the name you have set in Panotour Pro under Filename in Output
  3. If use Atom, you can open folder project and edit filename and code.
  4. Go back to Panotour Pro, make the changes you want to see on Mobile or Tablet, the changes you can make are only the graphics, move icons, change size, etc. (does not work with hotspots, tour changes, Scenes, general settings, etc.)
  5. In this example, I used the Skinplus (but it also works with the other menu bars), I have put menu vertical right for mobile.
  6. Export the project with the changes.
  7. Go back to the project folder and you will find again index_skin.xml change the name to index_skin_mobile.xml (remember step number 2)
  8. Now edit the index.xml file, look for the line of code
    <include url = “%FIRSTXML%/index_skin.xml” />
  9. Change this line with this code

<include url = “%FIRSTXML%/index_skin_desktop.xml” devices = “desktop” />
<include url = “%FIRSTXML%/index_skin_mobile.xml” devices = “mobile|tablet” />

You can also decide to use the same desktop skin with a tablet then change the code with

<include url = “%FIRSTXML%/index_skin_desktop.xml” devices = “desktop|tablet” />
<include url = “%FIRSTXML%/index_skin_mobile.xml” devices = “mobile” />

Save and done you have 2 different skins

 

 

Beware, if you export the project with Panotour again all these changes will be deleted, and you will have to redo the whole procedure!
