Love the new panorama tour ability and the accessibility of viewing through web browsers. I do wish there was an option to change the pan / look control to touch instead of only having gyroscopic controls. That way during client meetings you can simply look around with your finger so everyone can see. I understand that right now you can rotate your camera by touching but the camera is locked to a certain elevation right now. Is there going to be an option for this in the future? Thanks!

Approved the thread. -
The elevation of the rendering of the pano file will always be the elevation of the rendering. You can't change the Verizon by moving up or down in a still image rendering.
In the future I would expect the Enscape web explorable version to contain the shortcuts (similar to the EXE file) allowing for easier navigation in a web browser.

I can rotate the view with my finger on my iPhone in Safari. Here's the test file.

I'm not familiar enough with Google street view or Matterport. I don't understand from the video what functionality you're trying to re-create with Enscape.

loganh96 If you're wanting to be able to navigate between the panos then you'll need to build a tour using the rendered panos in the likes of 3DVista, there's a not-insignificant process in linking the panos together and I've never seen an automatic way of doing it.
Here's a couple of examples of tours created using 3DVista from SketchUp/Enscape panos:

I appreciate the info but I didn't mean navigation in my original post. I'm afraid this got more complicated than I intended, I really was just wondering if instead of requiring you to use "your device motion sensors" [like the attached screenshot shows], you could use your finger to look around. Right now, you can use your finger to rotate 180 degrees but the looking is still controlled by your devices motion sensors. Does that make sense?

I’ve never really used the Enscape viewer so I was very surprised when I tried the link Phil Read provided above.
On my iPad I can pan left and right but I CANT pan up or down nor zoom in or out !!
Why the colossal restrictions?
loganh96 I now see what your talking about.
Edit:
I'm back at a PC and trying Phil's link again in Firefox and I can look up/down/left/right as expected.
Demian Gutberlet can you chip in here and let us know what’s up/happening, thanks

Same issue, i cant pan up or down with my fingers and i cant find the switch to test it by gyroscope (i believe its already enabled).

I found the solution to enable the gyroscope on IOS (but not pan up/down with fingerswipe):
https://youtu.be/cdSbD1DX8rk(Settings – Safari – request desktop Website - off)
(you want option off – or to NOT request desktop version (it will then automatically request the –mobile- version))
Tested successfully on both my iphone and ipad.
When loading 360 -
It should ask something to the effect of “allow or block sensors” when you load a pano. Allow.

Separately and not an issue for 360's hosted by enscape, if you personally plan to host your own 360's, your site needs to be https enabled (not oldschool http). An SSL is needed to maintain IOS security.

How can I create this from SketchUp, with the new version? Can't find a tutorial.

The model itself is seperate from enscape being able to output 360 panoramas. Certainly enscape in sketchup can output this format of render. Its, i believe, the button next to the standard image render in enscape.
