On your dashboard, you will see the Create Experience button.

  • Click on Create Experience button to create a new experience by adding a name for the experience in the input box that appears.
  • Once added, the experience appears among the experience cards.

Access an experience​

On your dashboard, you will see all the experience cards under your organization. These cards will be arranged in the order of activity. The most recently modified/newly created experience will appear first. You can change this to sort the list in the opposite order or sort it by name by toggling the Sort by name and Sort by most recent option.

Experience Cards​

You can access your experience settings using the Settings (gear) icon on the left-bar.

Experience Settings

The Experience settings will appears as a gear icon on the left bar while you are building your experience. If you haven't built any experience yet, please head over to the Build section first.

It has five tabs:

  • General
  • Collaborator
  • Menu
  • Variables
  • Advanced
  • Tour mode

General Settings​

General Settings

Here you can:

  1. Rename or duplicate the experience.
  2. Change initial scene using the dropdown.
  3. Change the field of view angle.
  4. Set option to automatically track all rules.
  5. Set option to optimize for offline mode. This optimizes all assets for better offlining.

Collaborators​

Use this tab to add new colaborators to the experience.

Collaborators

Menu

This tab is used to control the Menu used to toggle between Scenes.

The menu looks like this:

Viewer Menu

It appears both in the editor and in the viewer. On the menu tab, you can control if you want this menu enabled or disabled. You can also control if you want any scene to be shown in the menu or not individually.

Variables​

Variables can be added to the experience in the variables tab. These varaibles can then be used in rules to control various properties of elements and scenes.

When working in the editor, some experiences require that custom logic be run when certain events occur, since this logic depends on specific use cases, the editor has a script property where a custom javascript can be entered. This script will be executed during the run time (i.e., in the view mode)

Here is a sample script that will add a small timer to the upper left hand of your screen: 

<script> 
window.onload = function(){ 
  var second = 0; 
  var minute = 0; 
  function addZero(n){ 
    if(n<10) {return "0"+n} 
    else {return n;} 
  }
 
  var h1 = document.createElement("h1"); 
  h1.style['text-align'] = 'left'; 
  h1.style['font-size'] = '30px'; 
  h1.style['position'] = 'absolute'; 
  h1.style['width'] = '100%'; 
  h1.style['color'] = 'white'; 
  h1.style['fontFamily'] = 'montserrat'; 
  document.getElementById("app").appendChild(h1); 
  setInterval(function(){ 
    h1.innerHTML = addZero(minute) + ":" + addZero(second); 
    second++; 
    if(second == 60){ 
      minute++; second = 00; 
    } 
  }, 1000); } 
</script>

Tour Mode​

Use the tour mode to start a guided tour which starts after a few seconds of inactivity. The guided tour slowly rotates the scenes that the viewer is in and then transitions through all the scenes in the list below, one by one.

After enabling tour mode, you may select the scenes and the order in which to show them.

Tour Mode

An example of the tour mode can be seen in this experience:
