QTVR Object Movie Settings Dialog Box
Use this dialog box to specify the number of pan frames and number of tilt frames that are used to export the
QuickTime VR object movie.
Pointing device: Export Rendered Image ➤ QTVR Object Movie Type ➤ OK button
Pan Settings
Pan Min and Pan Max Define how far the model can be revolved (as though on a turntable).
Pan Initial Defines where you view the model from at the start (again, as though on a turntable, 0 or 360 would
be the same point at the opposite side and 180 would be where the camera is now).
Pan Frame No. The number of frames to be used to revolve the model from the Pan Min position to the Pan
Max position.
Tilt Settings
Tilt Min and Tilt Max Define how far the model can be tilted (backwards and forwards from its current position).
Tilt Initial Defines where you view the model from at the start (assuming you are looking at the model straight,
-90 would be from the bottom and 90 from the top).
Tilt Frame No. The number of frames to be used to tilt the model from the Tilt Min position to Tilt Max position.
Export Rendered Image Dialog Box

NOTE The QTVR Panoramic Movie will effectively export 32 images, rotating about the current camera position
to form a 360 degree panorama. Best results are achieved when the camera has zero tilt and is located in a position
that has a 360 degree panoramic view, for example, in the center of a room.
