Popup Intro

Popup Intro lets you show a welcome screen before viewers start exploring a Panoee virtual tour. You can display a desktop/mobile image, a desktop/mobile video, or a selected tour description article, then let viewers close the popup and begin the tour.

Steps

1. Open the Project Editor

   From your Panoee dashboard, open the virtual tour project you want to edit.

2. Open Setting

   In the top toolbar, click the Setting icon.

3. Select Popup Intro

   In the left sidebar, click Popup Intro.

4. Enable Popup Intro Setup

   In Popup Intro Setup, switch the toggle to Enabled.

5. Add an image intro

   Open the Image tab, then upload the images you want to show before the tour starts.

   Setting	Description
   Image (Desktop)	Sets the intro image for desktop viewers.
   Image (Mobile)	Sets the intro image for mobile viewers.
   Auto close	Automatically closes the popup after a set time.
   Time Auto Close (seconds)	Controls how long the image intro stays visible before closing.
   Text close	Sets the label of the close button.

   

6. Add a video intro

   Open the Video tab, then upload or change the videos you want to show before viewers enter the tour.

   Setting	Description
   Video (Desktop)	Sets the intro video for desktop viewers.
   Video (Mobile)	Sets the intro video for mobile viewers.
   Mute	Starts the intro video without sound.

7. Use a tour description article

   Open the Description Tour tab, then select the description article you want to use as the intro content.

   Choose a display mode:

   Mode	Description
   Fullscreen	Shows the selected description as a full-screen welcome page.
   Modal	Shows the selected description inside a popup window.

   

8. Review the result

   Open the tour viewer and confirm the popup appears before the tour starts. Click the close button to make sure the popup closes correctly and the viewer can begin exploring the tour.

Notes

• Use Image for a quick branded welcome screen, Video for a more immersive introduction, and Description Tour when you want to present richer written content before the tour begins.
• Prepare separate desktop and mobile media so the intro looks correct on different screen sizes.
• Keep the close button text short and clear.
• If Auto close is enabled, choose a duration long enough for viewers to understand the intro before it disappears.
