New Features

Description box is bigger and open by default

  • Description: Previously, the description box in 360 Tours would require users to click Read More to enlarge the description box and see more text. Read More has been eliminated and all text is shown by default. Additionally, the description box has been enlarged so more text is available before the user needs to scroll.



(ADA) Screen reader navigation of description box

The order the screen reader will navigate the description box. Things to note: #4 is the audio region, and #8 is for videos if present.

Increase URL length limits for buttons

  • Description: The URLs being added for buttons on Tour Builder previously had a limit on them. We removed the character limit for button URLs.

Update copy for Tour Builder’s Learn More modal

  • Description: The Learn More modal has been updated with technical requirements for the files uploaded to 360 Tours. For example, we suggest a recommended minimum resolution for 360 Videos and mention what resolution larger 360 Videos will be downsized to.


The new Learn More modal copy.

(ADA) Alt text for images and panoramas in 360 Tours

  • Description: Tour Builder users are now able to specify alt text for their images and panoramas. This alt text will be rendered and reflected in their public 360 Tours. Support for this was added previously, but needed a bit more work to be fully implemented for all media.

Hide image captions if they are filenames

  • Description: 360 Tours started displaying image titles set in Tour Builder as their image caption. However, not many images had actual titles and defaulted to their filename. To remedy this, all image titles that were filenames have been deleted, and only image titles that have been set are shown on 360 Tours.

Update Panorama Settings to Media Settings

  • Description: Previously, only panoramas had a settings page where Tour Builder users could edit settings like default orientation. This settings page is now available for tour stops with all media types (panoramas, images, 360 videos).

This settings button now reflects which media type is chosen for the tour stop.

360º Tour Mobile Design Minor Updates 

  • Description: The controls for 360 videos and panoramas have been moved out of the bottom, navigation bar for mobile users. The mobile user experience now will perform better for smaller embeds and with additional features and buttons like 360º video. 

The bar at the bottom of the screen is primarily for navigation now. All other buttons have been moved to the top-right, where the panorama or 360 video controls now live.
