How Do I limit QTVR vertical view
Posted: 7 May 2008 at 19:23 GMT 		reply
I created a 360 x 160 degree pano using PTGUI and output it in quicktime format. I did not capture nadir and zenith shots. When a user pans up how can I restrict the QTVR to stop where the actual images stop so that the black holes at the top and bottom aren't shown?

Thanks,
Ivan

You have to set this settings manually.
Just choose settings and in the tilt option choose -80 and 80 as minimum and maximum tilt for your 160 degree panorama.

You should also change the Field of View to initial 60-70 and maximum 90 and depending on your resolution to 30-50 minimum.

I do not use PTGui for QTVR output and must say I am surprised to se an initial view of 90 degrees as default.
If that really is the default setting I have to talk to Joost about it, because that is just ridiculous.
