Point Hotspots (Navigation) ​

A Point hotspot links one scene to another, letting visitors walk through your tour from room to room or area to area. It's the hotspot type you'll use most often to connect your scenes together.

Adding a Point hotspot ​

  1. Drag the Point hotspot icon from the toolbar onto the panorama, at the spot where you want visitors to click to move on (for example, a doorway or hallway).
  2. Choose the destination scene. Scenes are organized by scene group in the picker, which makes it easy to find the right one even in a large tour.
  3. Fine-tune the arrival view: drag the live mini-preview of the destination scene to set exactly which direction and zoom level the visitor will be facing the moment they arrive.

Why the arrival view matters ​

Setting the arrival direction makes transitions feel natural, for example, having the visitor arrive already facing into the next room, rather than facing a wall. This small touch makes a big difference in how smooth your tour feels to walk through.

Like other hotspots, a Point hotspot can use a custom icon and size, and it can be password-protected independently of the whole project. See Hotspots Overview for these shared options.
