When you select the "Automatic Resize" option on the Save Image As
dialog box and then save to IVR format, the image hotspots disappear or
appear in the wrong places in the final image.
This affects only IVR format. Hotspots work correctly with all
other formats.
To work around this problem, control the size of your panorama before
applying hotspots. You can do this with the Resize command (New image
menu) or by selecting "Image height" or "Image width" and entering an
value for the height or width on Wizard Step 5. If you do enter a value,
you can change the value later. To change the value later:
- Exit the Wizard by clicking "Done".
- Right-click on the "Resized" thumbnail and select "Show Source".
- Enter a new size and press "OK".
- Double-click the "Final image" thumbnail before applying hotspots or
saving the image.
To use this technique, begin by entering an arbitrary starting value
for the height (e.g. 400) in the Wizard. Complete the panorama and exit
the Wizard. Use the "Compute file size" button on the Save Image As dialog
box to determine the file size. Resize the image (as described
above) to be larger or smaller and test the file size using the "Compute
file size" button. When you reach a good file size, add your hotspots to
the final image and then save as IVR.
