Stitched Mode: The hotspot is attached to the panorama surface. It will scale with zoom (gets bigger when zooming in, smaller when zooming out). Feels like part of the image — similar to a patch on the pano
Fly Mode: The hotspot floats above the panorama. Its size stays constant, regardless of zoom level. Useful when you want the hotspot to remain clearly visible at all times
Hotspot visibility (zoom-based)
When a hotspot is selected, open Visibility in the hotspot toolbar (eye icon).
Always show (default): the hotspot is visible at every zoom level. Existing hotspots without visibility settings behave this way.
Show at certain zoom levels: the hotspot appears only when the viewer zoom is within a range you set.
Use the dual-handle slider to set the range from zoomed out to zoomed in (0% = fully zoomed out, 100% = fully zoomed in). You can also type values in the number fields.
The range is clamped to your tour’s min/max zoom limits (set in Project Settings → View settings).
When you first switch to zoom-based visibility, PanoCool suggests a sensible default: visible from the current zoom level inward (more zoomed in).
While editing, the selected hotspot stays visible so you do not lose it while adjusting the range; unselect or publish the tour to preview hide/show as visitors will see it.
Available for icon, image, video, text, HTML, and polygon hotspots.
