Play Audio in 360 Image Label Automatically

There's an issue where in guided tour within a 360 image, a close layer trigger doesn't always work reliably. For example, if marker 5 should open layer 1,  then I would put close layer 1 triggers on markers 4 and 6. However, if you navigate to marker 5, navigate away from the scene using the sidebar menu, and then navigate back to the scene, when you move to markers 4 or 6, layer 1 stays open erroneously. 

This makes using layers to automatically play audio (which should be complementary to the text labels) unreliable. 

Would it be possible instead to have a toggle or trigger to automatically play audio that's inserted into the label (audio that appears as a media widget at the bottom of the label)? I can't find anything that would do this.

Thanks!

  • Hi! Unfortunately, I can’t share this file. But ignoring the outlined issue, the request still stands. Is there a way to turn on autoplay for audio files inserted into labels on markers in 360 images? And if not, I suggest that as an option.

  • Hi Account 3,

    I'm happy to chime in! There is currently no way of auto-playing label audio files in 360° images. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! We'll be sure to update this thread if any adjustments are made to this feature in the future.

  • The audio (TTS or whatever) can be entered into a layer.  They a "Show Layer" trigger can be associated with the 360 degree image marker.
