PtGui stitched pano in Tiger
Posted: 1 Jan 23, 16:21
 
I would like to include a Spherical (360 x 180 Equirectangular) panorama in Tiger. The image is indeed recognised as a 360 degrees image in tiger, but after 'make album' and 'Preview' there is nothing shown.
The panorama image is stitched with PTGui, which is also able to produce a webpage as output (http://medbib.thepen.nl/360/Panorama%20Bilder/index.html#img=_MG_0521_DxO_Panorama.jpg), but I would like to integrate the pano in Jalbum.
Many thanks in advance
Theo

I grabbed your image and made an album with Tiger, all default settings. Seems to work just fine in local preview and online:

(demo album removed)

I suspect you're trying to use the Integrated or Windowed browser for preview, and those can't handle the pano viewer. Head for Tools > Preferences > General > Preview > Type, and choose External browser. That will use your default browser, instead of the crippled internal browser.

Dear oh dear, so fast and such simple an answer.
This has taken me the first three hours of 2023 as I couldn't figure out what was wrong, it should just work. In the end it actually did work, just the way of viewing didn't work and in hindsight I actually knew that as I had changed that in preferences before. It apparently somehow got changed back...

Many, many thanks.

Oh Mr Tucker, nog de beste wensen voor 2023!!

I have a list of "things that don't work in the integrated browser," and I've now added one more item to that list. ;)

Most of them are odd things that you might not notice. One exception: Google fonts don't work correctly (WOFF, also), and if you're using one of the more unusual fonts, like Cinzel Decorative, the difference is very obvious.
