Hello Stefan,


Sorry - I have to approve panos before they go live, I've done this now. This is to guard against panos with privacy violations or unsuitable content. I presume yours is the one in the Alps at:


https://www.opentrailview.org/?id=82


I generally check for updates daily. This is the only one I can see, did you try others? Note that you have to upload them one at a time, it will not do multiple file uploads in one go.


Thanks for your suggestions, will implement them as soon as I can.


Thanks,

Nick

Thanks, the uploading works now!

However, I cannot see my uploaded photospheres anywhere on the site, not even while being logged in, logging in again.... Neither on the map nor on some list. Not sure if it was successful or not.

Few suggestions:
- make it so that the uploader sees his own uploads immediately (no pending approvals etc needed) with a status clearly shown
- allow for lower zoom levels. Panning away from your demo area is slow in high zooms.
- search box should trigger searching when enter key is pressed
- after login you should remove oauth_token from the URL (either via JavaScript history.push or http redirect)
- persist current coordinates in the URL, so it is easy to share and bookmark links (there are plugins for leaflet, eg leaflet-hash)
- make the site more mobile friendly (text is extremely unreadable, buttons hard to hit...)

Thanks,
Stefan

Hello Stefan,


Have increased limit to 15 MB now - let me know if you still have problems. Still not mobile friendly just yet - will do this when I have the time.


Thanks,

Nick

Hi!

I have problems uploading full 360°*180° photospheres. All of them are around 10MB, and could not find any below 5MB to test with. The error does not say much - no photo uploaded and no error code.

The size limit should be raised (eg to 15MB) in my opinion as there is no easy option to compress such images (eg by lowering the resolution).

Also the website is really hard to use on mobile devices. :-(

Br,
Stefan

Hello Simon,


Glad it's working for you!


It looks like it should be possible to show the view field on the map - a Leaflet plugin exists to draw semicircles for example, so I'll have a look into that - shouldn't be too difficult to implement.


Thanks,

Nick

Looks very nice and works very smoothly for me, thank you!

One functionality I think would be useful for orientation: somehow make
the current viewfield of the panorama visible in the little overview map
(or if that's too difficult to implement at least link the rotation of
the panorama with the overview map so that they always share the same
geographic direction).

Cheers
Simon

This can be done either by clicking on the map to position the panorama, or by using a GPX file recorded at the same time to position panoramas automatically by using EXIF and GPX timestamps.
