#Automatic file list generation code by jithinbp gmailįiles = 'jpg'] #make a list of image files So I wrote a small change to photoSphere.py which loads all jpg filenames in the baseĭirectory into a QComboBox for easy selection :) Having to enter the path of the file/ drag a file into the input field is a little painful. Now also with a file selector and on GitHub It does not work with big panoramas on older graphics chips (like, f.ex. Meaning that your favorite file inĬ:\Users\You\Pictures\PANO_ABC.jpgbecomes file://C:\Users\You\Pictures\PANO_ABC.jpgģ) the positive consequence of this fact is that you can pass a regular url to the program, and it will open and display it for you. You have to enter it by hand (or copy paste it from somewhere else)Ģ) the address has to be in URI (URL, if you will) form. Otherwise, just enjoy your photo spheres, now on your PCġ) there's no file selector. If anybody has a suggestion of where to host the portable package, please contact me! I am also urgently looking for a host for these ~70MB. If you improve it, please let me know :) (there's plenty of improvements possible) It's trivial, it's in Python, it's GPL, and it's even portable (on windows).įor linux users, it's portable too, as your favorite package manager can surely install all the needed dependencies for you. Well, anyway, all this mumbo jumbo to say that this is the reason why i made a QAD (= QuickAndDirty) PhotoSphereViewer. I believe professionals also do not wish to share these panoramas through Google+. This i think can be true for me (ofc.) but for other people as well, as i believe that the use of these photo spheres could be also professional (imagine interior designers, architects, etc.). I don't want to use Google+ to share my photo spheres! I want to send one via email to whoever i want. There there's a widget that allows to admire these 360 panoramas directly from your favorite browser ( though i haven't tried.

If you want to share one with someone else (= also yourself, but on another machine), you can do it through Google+. It's normally only possible to view these spheres from the android device, whatever it is. However, there's only one missing thing about photo spheres, that managed to annoy me pretty soon. The results are actually pretty cool, and, at least for my own sake, this tool is quite useful for taking spheres of interiors. PhotoSpheres are essentially 360 degrees panoramas, constructed out of several shots, that the user can take following the camera app indications. Google has recently pimped up the stock camera app of Android, with the result that it's now very very easy to create so-called PhotoSpheres.
