Hi,

Thanks for this add-on it’s very cool and functional but I just have a question.
Isn’t possible to get the image in 360 what we created on the website to download this in the laptop and open with an software to read this for example ?

Thanks.

Cordialy,
Deros

Pannellum only supports online, but I think this is very possible, I believe there will be some offline softwares that support viewing cubemap format, but need to find them. By the way, 6 directions images are saved in “Images” folder, click “Folder” button you will find them.
