Hi Bob
I'd be very interested in the code(s) you used to achieve this. I've
got access to LiveStage Pro and have done a couple of nice things with
it, but I find it quite difficult.
My hope is to present two QTVRs in the one player, side by side, and
when you pan one the other pans by the same amount. Its for a "before
and after" type QTVR. I haven't seen this anywhere but it must have
been done before. I think your QTVR code could be adapted, any thoughts?
I'm mindful of previous requests to keep this list clear of these tech
questions, so my apologies in advance, but I'm quite excited by this
possibility, its been on my agenda for some time now.
Many thanks
Bill
