360 image hotspot text

Is there a way to access the text of a 360 hotspot so you can change it via a trigger? I noticed that %varname% in the label doesn't work.

    I wouldnt have thought so. I was going to recommend using a variable reference, but if you are saying that doesnt work either, then Im pretty sure there wont be a way from a trigger.

    Very odd, that the %var% reference didnt work though, as its been pretty dependable for me in other areas of the content.

      I was surprised too. I use the %var% in lots of things. I'm not even finding a way to access the states of the markers.

    Yeah sorry Sharon, I just messed around with a 360 test, and couldnt get it working. Whatever package the 360 image is wrapped within, doesnt seem exposed to the regular SL layer, hence all the standard variable calls arent working.

    I even tried a bit of JS to pass out the variable, and send it directly to the 360 image, but without knowing the exact 360 structure, Im flying blind a bit.

    Sorry!
