Official instructions about hotspots in VR mode don't match hotspot behaviour #209

Closed tommytee closed 7 years ago

tommytee commented 7 years ago

The VR View for the Web page instructions state "In VR mode, gazing at a photosphere containing hotspots causes a reticle to be rendered..." The reticle is never activated in VR mode currently.

Also it would make more sense if you could "gaze" at a hotspot in VR mode to "click" it, instead of removing the headset to touch the screen. (which is currently required to "click" a hotspot)

Two issues that have been making if difficult to implement "gaze to click" are https://github.com/googlevr/vrview/issues/204 and https://github.com/googlevr/vrview/issues/206.

The reticle can be turned on by uncommenting a line in world-renderer: this.reticleRenderer...

With the two issues above fixed and the reticle turned on, gaze-to-click can be implemented.
