KeyShotXR Variables

Below is a list of KeyShotXR variables. these variables are set in the .html file created by KeyShot Studio when the KeyShotXR is rendered. These variables can be edited after the KeyShotXR is created if minor edits are needed, rather than recreating the KeyShotXR over again. The .html file can be edited using a standard text editor.

Variable Location

All KeyShot Studio variables are located in the KeyShotXR .html file <head> section, within a <script> tag, and are called by the initKeyShotXR() function.

Variable location

<head>  <script type="text/javascript">    var keyshotXR;
 
    function initKeyShotXR() {
      var nameOfDiv = "KeyShotXR";
      // Other variables follow here..
 
      keyshotXR = new keyshotXR(nameOfDiv, /* The other variables ... */);
    }
 
    window.onload = initKeyShotXR;
  </script></head>

nameOfDiv

The div id of the KeyShotXR. This is where the KeyShotXR content is located.

Position in html

<body oncontextmenu="return false;">  <div id="KeyShotXR"></div></body>

Usage Example:

var vCount = 18;

Start Frame

Horizontal – uStartIndex

This controls the horizontal start frame for the KeyShotXR. This is set by viewing angle in the KeyShotXR settings, under Render, Output options in the KeyShotXR tab, under KeyShotXR Control > Angle Control.

Usage Example:

var uStartIndex = 1;

Vertical – vStartIndex

This controls the vertical start frame for the KeyShotXR. This is set by viewing angle in the KeyShotXR settings, under Render, Output options in the KeyShotXR tab, under KeyShotXR Control > Angle Control.

Usage Example:

Rotation settings

Continuous horizontal rotation – uWrap

This allows the KeyShotXR to continue rotation after last frame in the horizontal direction when set to true.

Usage Example:

var uWrap = true;

Continuous vertical rotation – vWrap

This allows the KeyShotXR to continue rotation after last frame in the vertical direction when set to true.

Usage Example:

var vWrap = true;

Rotation damping – rotationDamping

This controls the speed at which the rotation slows down when a KeyShotXR is rotated. Increasing this value will increase the duration of rotation before coming to a stop. This is set in the KeyShotXR settings, under Render > Output options in the KeyShotXR tab, under Advanced.

Usage Example:

var rotationDamping = 0.96;
