We've had panoramic tours available on our website, linked from MapGuide, for
quite a while now. Although users can pop out of one pano and then enter
another, one of the best features of for our users is that once inside the
pano, they can navigate from one pano to another by just cIicking on hotspots
within the image. As well, they can open external HTML pages from inside the
pano for additional information on historic buildings, etc.
It appears that the new PhotoOverlay tag allows for displaying spherical and
cylindrical panoramic views. However, there doesn't appear to be a linking (or
link positioning) component, removing the ability to create proper virtual
tours.
Please add the ability to place hotspots within panos. These should be able to
link to internal locations with an anchor reference #pano-id-3232, to external
KML files with http://www.example.com/pano123.kml#pano-id-123, or to external
web pages with http://www.example.com/building_description.html
