This page provides information about the panorama and cardboard options in Enscape. 


## **Overview**

---

Enscape allows you to generate 360° panoramas in both stereo and mono. Stereo exports can be used with Google Cardboard. Panoramas exported from Enscape can be saved locally as a file or uploaded into the cloud where mono panoramas from the same CAD project can be combined to make a Gallery or a Tour that can help to showcase a project.

Individual panoramas are assigned a QR code which can be scanned to open the panorama on a mobile device, for example. Once a panorama has been uploaded to the cloud, whether single panoramas or sets of panoramas that are created as either a Gallery or Tour, they can be shared via a link, a QR code, or direct via email. These can then be viewed with a web browser on both desktop computers or mobile devices.

If you render a stereo panorama for Google Cardboard you can enable the cardboard mode on your mobile device by clicking on the cardboard ‘glasses’ symbol on the device when the panorama is open.


## **How to Export a Panorama**

---

Load a project into your CAD, start Enscape and open the **Visual Settings** window and set the **Projection** to **Perspective**. Optionally, you can adjust the **Panorama Resolution** in the **Visual Settings’ Output **tab. Higher panorama resolutions will take longer to export.

Navigate to a position in the Enscape Viewport where you want the panorama to be captured from. You can click the **Render Panorama** button directly (which will export a Mono Panorama by default) or click the small arrow next to the Render Panorama button to choose **Stereo Panorama** if you want to view the panorama in Google Cardboard.

### **Highlights**

---

Highlights allow you to add contextual detail and design options for your virtual tour. You can fill them with a textual description, image attachments, and links to express your design ideas. You can use the **Add **button to create a new highlight or click anywhere in the image with the tag pointer.

The title, description, and any image attachments will be shown in the highlight bubble. You can choose from a range of icon and color options and adjust the size of the highlight.

### **Viewing Files**

**Markers Visibility **toggle  – Temporarily hide any existing comment/hotspot/highlight markers from the viewport, so you can enjoy an unobstructed view of the current file.

## **Embed into Webpage**

---

You can then use the full URL and embed a single Panorama, Panorama Gallery, or Panorama Tour into a web page by adapting the following html snippet into the <body> of your markup:


```
<script defer type="text/javascript"
            src="data:text/javascript,document.getElementById('collab-frame').addEventListener('mouseover',function(e){e.target.focus()});"
        ></script>
        <iframe
            id="collab-frame"
            width="850" height="550" style="border: 0;" scrolling="no" loading="lazy"
            src="<your panorama / gallery / tour URL placed here>"
            allow="fullscreen; xr-spatial-tracking;" referrerpolicy="strict-origin"
        ></iframe>
```


> ✅ If you are using links generated from the Chaos Cloud , please make sure that the Link access has been changed to **Anyone can view** in the **Share** options, before embedding the links in your web pages.


## **View it in Cardboard**

> ✅ **Insert Links to Navigate**
> ✅ 
> ✅ Enscape gives you the panorama in mono and stereo via a normal image file or uploads it to the web. If you want to go further, you can connect the panoramas with clickable arrow links to make it more interactive. A variety of tools exist to do that, for example [krpano](https://krpano.com/).
> ✅ 
> ✅ **For Software Developers**
> ✅ 
> ✅ If you want to host the panorama on your own webspace, follow [these guidelines](https://developers.google.com/vr/concepts/vrview). This is for users with software development background only – usually, our one-click cloud upload is a great solution to host your panorama reliably and fast.


> ℹ️ A couple of points to consider when trying to view Panoramas on iOS devices:
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ - As of iOS 12.2, Apple decided to limit accelerometer and gyroscope access in browsers for “privacy reasons”.  
> ℹ️ You should be able to re-activate the access through the following settings:  
> ℹ️ Settings > Safari > Privacy & Security > Motion & Orientation Access.  
> ℹ️ Since iOS 13, Apple have disabled access to this option altogether, and as this is now on a per request basis, a prompt will appear each time on opening a panorama.
> ℹ️ - If a Panorama has been rendered out from Enscape with the **Panorama Resolution** set to High, the Panorama will not work on iOS. Instead, render out the Panorama with the **Panorama Resolution** set to **Normal**.
