Edit View Page Introduction

Updated

Overview

The Edit View Page is the central hub for customizing a published iGUIDE from within the iGUIDE Portal. It allows you to update the title, set how the 3D tour starts, control which panos and floors are visible, adjust the compass, set expiration dates, and configure advanced display options for the viewer and PDF outputs.

This page gives you full control over how your iGUIDE is presented to viewers, helping you tailor each tour to suit branding, privacy, and presentation preferences before sharing it with clients or buyers.
