PTViewer 1.1

Changes to v1.0

(1) Partial panoramas supported (FOV < 360°).

(2) Configurable Controls built into the Applet. VR-tours
    without html-browser are feasible using any appletviewer.
    See the docs for details of the implementation.
    
(3) Compass image can be loaded which is rotated
    according to current pan angle.
    
(4) Static hotspots added (like clickable image maps
    in html).
    
(5) Three examples added: SimplePano.html using
    no scripting, Controls.html using configurable
    controls, and ScriptedPano.html using Javascript.
    
(6) Double buffering implemented which eliminates
    flicker of hotspotimages. Slight speed penalty (~3%).
    
(7) Viewer window can be smaller than appletwindow, and
    offset.
    
(8) Wait image not scaled. Displayed centered in window.

(10)frame can be any size, and is aligned to lower right
    corner of applet window.
    
(11)Waitimage and frame image need not be reloaded for
   new panoramas.
   
(12) Minimum time for display of wait image settable.

(13) Maximum frame rate for autopan functions set to 25fps.

(14) Pressing 'i' displays applet version in status bar.

(15) Some more minor bug fixes.

JMF support has not yet been included.
