Can PTGui create virtual tours?

To avoid confusion, the term ‘virtual tour’ commonly refers to a presentation (a website or a CDROM) consisting of multiple interactive panoramas where the user can navigate between panoramas by clicking on hotspots in the panorama, or by clicking on a map or floor plan. PTGui can create interactive panoramas (just choose QuickTime VR output in the Create Panorama tab), but if you would like to combine multiple such panoramas into a true virtual tour, you need third party software. See Q6.17 for recommendations. Most of the panorama viewers mentioned in Q6.17 can create virtual tours by linking the panoramas using hotspots. In Pano2VR and Flashificator authoring is done in a graphical user interface, while for the other viewers knowledge of XML and/or JavaScript is required.
