Re: Greater Max FOV

Hi,
no problem, server code has been updated.
The max. FOV ist now 179 degrees, the min. FOV is 1 degree. The "default" range remains at 10 - 120 degrees for those who haven't set other ranges. Please note that zooming all the way out to 179 will, for the flash player, result in the panorama becoming a small rectangular blur of colorful lines with a lot of black around it, and navigating makes it behave like a wibbly-wobbly cube-like thing twitching around, so you really shouldn't do this unless for artistic reasons. A max fov value of 174 still fills the viewing window while also showing a super-duper wide-angle view. Your choice. :-)
Quicktime handles these border cases much more gracefully, or maybe it stops internally just shy of the 179 value.
I also fixed the unexpected loss of keyboard control at the "configure interactively" page, where zoom in / zoom out by keyboard apparently ceased to function after a krpano update that added the option to tie these actions to arbitrary keys. (and since no keys were defined, because it wasn't necessary until then, it just didn't zoom anymore). It behaves once again the same as on the regular page now, with shift/ctrl + a/y (also, z) acting as zoom in/out controls.

>I'd like to have a greater Max FOV. In Advanced Settings, I can change the default "60" to "170". But when I reopen them the Max FOV is "120". Is there any way to get around that? If not, why is that the Max? On my Mac I can set it to 170 and have all the zoom out that I want.
