Fundamentals of the QuickTime VR Authoring
Studio interface

When you open one of QuickTime VR Authoring Studio’s five tools, the window for that tool
appears. The windows for the Object Maker, Panorama Maker, Panorama Stitcher, and Scene
Maker have similar layouts. Each has a section for defining source images, another for
defining output files (the files the tool creates as it processes your QTVR media), a process
button, and a section where you can view source material.

You save output files by clicking the

checkbox next to the file you want to

save. You can save intermediate files

as well as final QTVR media files.

This area
contains a
button
associated
with a
process, such
as stitching a
panorama
or creating
a scene.

You define locations and
names for output files here.
The number and type of files
depend on the tool.

You define source

images here. The

number and type of
buttons that appear

depend on the tool.

You use the Rotate

and Sort buttons to

move images in

the bottom part

of the window.

Images used in panoramas and objects
are displayed in this part of the
window. Icons for scene nodes and
Project Manager elements appear in
this area.
