360 images and sheets can be named upon upload. In order to adjust the naming to, e.g., a standard naming convention or just make some smaller adjustments

Changing names in the Web Editor

  1. Open your project in the Web Editor

  2. In the project panel, find the respective 360 image or sheet in the list that you would like to rename.

RENAME A 360 Image

Note: If you have TimeTravel scenes attached to a scene location, you need to differentiate between the initial/first scene added (parent scene) and the TimeTravel scenes added to this location over a period of time. It is always the name of the so-called parent scene that will be displayed in the list of the project panel.

I. Rename the "parent" 360 image/Change name in the list

In order to change the name for the selected location and what will be displayed in the project panel list, you need to rename the so-called parent scene:

  1. Right-click on the scene name in the project panel list and choose Change name from the context menu to open the Scene Settings.

  2. In the Scene Settings, to the right of the scene's thumbnail, you will find the Scene Name item. Click on the current name to edit it as you like.

  3. Enter the new scene name for your 360 image.

  4. Once you have entered the new name, click APPLY CHANGES in the lower right corner of the tab and the changes will be applied to the scene and displayed in the project panel list.

  5. IMPORTANT: To save your changes to the project, click the "Save" button in the upper left corner of the editor. You can rename multiple 360 images or sheets but need to make sure to save these changes with the "Save" button before closing the browser tab.

    NOTE: This only changes the "parent" scene and not all attached TimeTravel scenes.

II. Change the name of a TimeTravel 360 image

  2. In the project panel, click on the name of the 360 scene above the thumbnail or the little pen icon to the right of the thumbnail.

  3. In the Scene Settings, to the right of the scene's thumbnail, you will find the Scene Name item. Click on the current name to edit it as you like.

  4. Enter the new scene name for your 360 image.

  5. Once you have entered the new name, click APPLY CHANGES in the lower right corner of the tab and the changes will be applied to the scene and displayed in the project panel.

  6. IMPORTANT: To save your changes to the project, click the "Save" button in the upper left corner of the editor. You can rename multiple 360 images or sheets but need to make sure to save these changes with the "Save" button before closing the browser tab.

    NOTE: This only changes the name of the 360 TimeTravel scene that you have currently selected. The name in the project panel list will stay the same unless you edit the so-called parent scene (first scene added to this location/waypoint).
