Snapshot Mode lets you frame and capture still images directly from your 360° panoramas and add them to a property's gallery. It's the fastest way to pull listing-ready photos out of a pano without leaving the iGUIDE Portal.
Snapshot Mode is built for two main jobs:
- Documenting damage or other property details from a pano for an insurance claim or report
- Pulling gallery photos for an MLS listing or a social media post from a pano you've already captured
How to Use Snapshot Mode
Snapshot Mode is available from the Gallery page in the iGUIDE Portal.
- Open the property's gallery in the iGUIDE Portal.
- Choose your Field of View, and enable "Grid Mode" if desired
- Drag to reposition the framing of the pano image
- Click "Take Snapshot". A short animation confirms the still has been added to the gallery.
If a capture comes out misaligned, re-open the pano in Snapshot Mode and capture again. The original pano isn't affected.
