There are many plugin setting, but settings above is the main. In addition to the settings of the plugin itself, the krpano settings necessary for the proper operation of the plugin are set in this file.

An optimal blending effect (blending) of the panoramas is also set when switching from one to another (the loadscene_blend parameter).
By default GArrows replace or clone (depending on remove_originalhotspots value) original krpano hotspots with style="skin_hotspotstyle" attribute to its own navigation elements. If you witsh some of chevrons has vertical direction you need to add verticalchevron="true" to corresponding hotspot.
