Hide/unhide hotspots using actionscript

Hi,

I am using the embedPano script to embed a FPP-panorama into a swf. I have added a hotspot in the panorama. Now I want to start a timer in the swf and let it hide/unhide the hotspot every minute.
Anyone got any idea of how to do it?

Thanks

re: Hide/unhide hotspots using actionscript

Hey Jesper:

See this comment, and the comments below it, for how to put event listeners on hotspots in your panorama from another SWF.

You'll need to adjust your targeting of the panorama since you're using the embedPano setup, but the logic is the same. You won't be putting an event listener directly on the hotspot, but the code in these posts shows you how to get the ID attribute of the hotspot so you can do things with it.

HTH!

Patrick
