View Full Version : full screen from HTML?

Because I don't want it to be too intrusive, I have a small strip of control buttons on my panos in the bottom right corner. Here's an example

http://www.lookaroundcornwall.com/panos/lower-barn-garden.htm

It could easily be missed and I particularly don't want visitors to my site to overlook the full screen option, so I've added a Go LARGE! message on the HTML page (in the right hand column -you can't miss it!)

I'm not monitoring it, but I wouldn't mind betting a lot of people click this graphic expecting something to happen. Is there any way I can have an html button communicate with FPP to have it enter full screen mode when an HTML button, (rather than an FPP hotspot) is clicked?

Just realised I posted this same question nearly a year ago. Got some helpful replies, but nothing that I felt would work the way I wanted it to. Maybe things have moved on?

In any case, maybe I could broaden the question to include another (kind of related) thing I've been thinking about doing, but not really sure where to start. I now have sufficient content on my site so that there might be several panoramas in a given location. I know that I can include hotspots to create navigational links and I've done this in tours I've produced for clients. I'd like to do the same thing on http://www.lookaroundcornwall.com but I don't want hotspots appearing all over the place as I think it detracts from the virtual experience. Ideally, I'd like to add a button, preferably on the HTML page, that allows users to globally toggle hotspots. Any ideas where I might start with that, or even if it's possible?
