Auto-repeat feature for Google Earth tours #269

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Which products are relevant to this feature request?
Google Earth

What should this feature enhancement do?
Besides supporting an autoplay feature (see
http://code.google.com/p/kml-samples/issues/detail?id=248) I would also
like to see a way that a tour is looped over and over. This would come in
very handy for this type of project:

Are there any currently known workarounds that produce the same, or
similar, result?
As far as I know, there are no workarounds for this.

I have thought of this a bit more, I will suggest a slightly more general 
feature/KML extension.

A gxRepeat that extends gxTourPrimitive and can contain a gxPlayList.
example:
<gxTour>
<gxPlayList>
  <gxRepeat>
    <gxNumberOfTimes>infinity</gxNumberOfTimes>
    <gxPlayList>...</gxPlayList>
  <gxRepeat>
</gxPlayList>
</gxTour>

This way it will be possible to make an in-flight, and then repeat a ceratain 
tour, the gxNumberOfTimes should of course supply integers, but also infinite 
number of times.
