Hi All, long time no visit! Been busy on a long video project but now am back on the Tourweaver :)

I am up to speed with the lastest version on TW4 but I am having a few troubles with the hotspots. I have a hotspot on a scene with an action to open a popup window. On my popup window I have a control button with an action to close the popup window. Those basic function works fine.

Now when I play the movie and click on the hotspot the movie stops, the popup window opens but when I click on close the popup windows closes ok but the movie remains paused. If I apply a secondary action the the close popup window button to resume play it takes me back to the beggining of the movie :(

Outside of the scene viewer I have soem control buttons that open popupwindows with links to pictures and all of these have close buttons and they work perfectly well and do not interrupt the movie.

I can work around this by having my popup window as an image on the hotspot but may be I am doing something wrong.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Hi nerjaace,

Do you mean something like this sample?

There is a hotspot on the first scene. Click it, movie stops and a popup window opens. Close the popup window, movie plays again.

With the example you gave me above it retarts the scene from the start on my PC! Win XP IE6 Latest Flash Version.

When the movie plays again, it re-starts from where it stops.

No, it doesn't the movie starts from the very beginning again. As soon as you close the pop-up the movie track reverts to the very beginning.

Tested with:

• Windows XP SPIII, IE 7.0
• Windows XP SPIII, Firefox 3.0.10
• Windows XP SPIII, Google Chrome 1.0.154.65
• Windows XP SPIII, Opera 9.64

Hmm,

After looking into this some more what Carol says is correct but ONLY if you allow the auto-pan of the movie to get to the Hotspot itself.

What I expected as I assume nerjaace did also is that it would continue from the Hotspot click position no matter how you get to that position. Either manual pan or auto-pan on the movie track.

Hi Smooth, not quite sure what you mean by "ONLY if you allow the auto-pan of the movie to get to the Hotspot itself"??

I cant see that option for looking :(

Allow the movie to auto-pan until you can see the Hotspot, once the Hotspot is in view click on it. When you close the pop-up image/window the tour will continue from where it was up to.
