Hello all,

it’s been a long time since I posted anything here about the project….
now the customer wants the navigation to work more like Google Maps.

https://v3d.net/noi

So now I’m wondering if this can be done with Verge3D:
1. with the +/- buttons I added at the bottom right, you should be able to Zoom-In addition to the mouse wheel.
2. with the left mouse button you should be able to move the map.
3. with pressed Alt key and with the right mouse button you should be able to rotate.

The same should work with the smartphone navigation:
1. with one finger you should be able to move.
2. with 2 fingers you should be able to rotate.
3. zooming with 2 fingers already works like with Google Maps :)

Is this possible and if so, how could this be implemented with puzzles?

Thanks for the attention :)

Put the below in a JavaScript Puzzle and put that in a procedure and call as necessary

app.controls.rotateSpeed*=-1;
app.controls.rotateSpeedTouch *= -1;

1, 2 and 3 both for mouse and touch controls with puzzles only? That’s hardly possible. You’ll have to modify v3d.js source code (class OrbitControls) to do the job.

Puzzles and JS. Fast and expensive.

If you don’t see the meaning in something it primarily means that you just don’t see it but not the absence of meaning at all.

Ok, thanks for the answer…
Unfortunately I’am not able to do this with v3d.js

And if I limit the navigation change to mouse controls only …
(the first three points above)

Is this possible with puzzles and how ?

That is highly probable but again not with puzzles.

Hmm that’s very unfortunate …

Xeon meant above that you could use a JavaScript puzzle with various entries integrated into a procedure… what about that ?

I still wouldn’t know how to implement that, but maybe that would be an approach ?

Yes, you can do the job via JS coding if you are familiar with the structure and logic of OrbitControls

Some useful info can be found there

Inverted Camera Navigation

Hello all,

I’m sorry, but I’ve been trying on and off for the last few weeks without the forum to get anywhere with the few statements here regarding camera control and have been looking for answers here and on the internet.

However, I can’t get anywhere at all because I don’t have the necessary JS coding skills.

So unfortunately I have to drop the customer request to change the navigation to Google Maps Standard.

Now my question:
Can I, without changing the existing navigation, link the zoom to the +/- buttons, so that I can at least fulfill this one part of the customer request.
https://v3d.net/noi

And if so it would be great if they could show me a way to implement this with puzzles….

Thanks

300$ for buttons + optional 300$ for the mouse controls (hold Shift to rotate) + optional 600$ for the universal mouse/touch controls.

There are many ways to implement what you are asking.
It will depend on your budget obviously and what your client really wants.

The following is an extremely simple project that uses Google controls. You can flip the camera rotation direction, zoom in and zoom out based on buttons. Not sure why this would be preferred over pinch zoom or scroll but works nonetheless.

You would probably want to implement a form of deciding where the center point of zoom is..but based on the location of the map they are on.

Puzzles for the entire project are shown in the attached image.

Works on desktop and mobile.

All code in puzzles… not pretty but it should get on on the right track to getting this done yourself.

Since this is for a client…I would suggest taking KDV up on his offer and having him implement the puzzles. You will then end up with a set of puzzles you can reference and you can hopefully make a profit on what he is offering his services for.
