4. How to import PanoramaGL library? ====================================

a. Download PanoramaGL_0.2-beta.zip or download the source code from repository. b. If you download the zip file then decompress the file. c. Import PanoramaGL project with Eclipse: - Go to File->Import menu. - Select "Existing Projects into Workspace" and click on "Next" button. - Click on "Browse" button and select PanoramaGL project folder. - Click on "Finish" button. d. Right click on your project and select "Properties" option. e. Select on left panel "Android" option. f. In right panel go to "Library" section and click on "Add..." button. g. Select "PanoramaGL" library and click on "OK" button. h. Accept the changes selecting the "OK" button on right bottom corner in properties window.

a. Download libglues_0.2-beta.zip. b. Decompress the zip file and copy "libs" folder in your project. c. Download PanoramaGL_0.2-beta.jar. d. Copy jar file in "libs" folder in your project. e. Import jar file in your project: - Right click on your project and select "Properties" option. - Select on left panel "Java Build Path" option. - Select "Libraries" tabulator. - Click on "Add JARs..." button. - Select "libs/PanoramaGL_0.2-beta.jar" file from your project. - Click on "OK" button. - Accept the changes selecting the "OK" button on right bottom corner in properties window.

5. How to use PanoramaGL in your application? ============================================= a. Import the library as described on previous literal. b. Import a spherical image (e.g. spherical_pano.jpg) in "res/raw" folder. c. In the Activity class that you need to make a panoramic viewer, do the next changes:

   • Inherit from PLView class public class YourActivity extends PLView
   • Within the onCreate method, load the panoramic image @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); PLSpherical2Panorama panorama = new PLSpherical2Panorama(); panorama.setImage(new PLImage(PLUtils.getBitmap(this, R.raw.spherical_pano), false)); this.setPanorama(panorama); }

Note: You can load panoramic images from other methods or events if you need it.

6. Simple JSON Protocol ======================= You can use JSON protocol to load panoramas and to create virtual tours.

this.load(new PLJSONLoader("res://raw/json_spherical"));

Note: For this code, you need to have a file named "json_spherical.data" in "res/raw" folder in your application.

this.load(new PLJSONLoader("file:///sdcard/files/json_spherical.data"));

Note: For this code, you need to have a file named "json_spherical.data" in "/sdcard/files" folder on the Android device or emulator.

this.load(new PLJSONLoader("http://mydomain/files/json_spherical.data"));

Note: For this code, you need to have a file named "json_spherical.data" in "http://mydomain/files" Web server path.

Notes:

• keep options retain the settings loaded before the JSON protocol in progress, allowing you to control the settings for creating virtual tours.
• fov, fovFactor, zoomFactor and zoomLevel should not be used together because they have the same function, where the order of priority is fov, fovFactor, zoomFactor and finally zoomLevel.
• alpha options are float values from 0.0 to 1.0, where 1.0 means without transparency and 0.0 completely transparent.
• All options are case sensitive.

The commands are case sensitive and they can be used together using the semicolon character. e.g. "onClick": "lookAt(0.0, 90.0, true); load('res://raw/json_spherical2', true, BLEND(3.0, 1.0))".
