Opening QuickTime VR Authoring Studio

1

Double-click the QuickTime VR Authoring Studio icon.

2

Choose New from the File menu, then select Scene Maker.

A dialog box appears.

3

Type a name for your Scene Maker document.

A Scene Maker document is a record of your Scene Maker session. If you quit QuickTime
VR Authoring Studio before you make the final scene, you can open the document later to
continue your work. You can also open the Scene Maker document to make changes to a
scene you’ve already finished.

4

Click Save.

The Scene Maker window appears.

Adding a map

A map is a backdrop that appears in the Scene Maker window and helps you to lay out
and keep track of the nodes and links in the scene. It is the floor plan of your virtual space.
Adding a map is optional, but highly recommended. You can make a map with any drawing
program, or you can draw a map of the space on paper, then scan it into your computer.
Maps must be in PICT format.
