Weave Google’s imagery into your tour.
From the Street View panel in the editor rail, add a point on the map along roads and approaches and attach the Google imagery for that spot. It behaves like any other point: connect it to your paths and visitors can travel through it.
When a visitor moves onto a Street View point, Google’s imagery opens inside the tour, with a notice and a return button so they can always step back into your panoramas. Your tour chrome stays; they never leave your experience.
Add Street View starts a new Street View point: a real, first-class point whose imagery is Google's street photography instead of one of your own panoramas. Pressing it arms placement mode: your cursor becomes a crosshair everywhere, and the drawer switches to the "New Street View point" panel with Complete and Cancel.
Press the button, then tap the satellite map where the point should live. A teal dot drops, and the panel shows the street name it looked up plus the exact coordinates; tap the map again to adjust the spot as many times as you like. Press Complete to create it. The new point is named after the street (house number plus road when Google knows them), added to the Street View group, listed in tour menus as a destination, and its imagery opens immediately so you can confirm the view. Finish the job by aiming a floor tag at it from any nearby point, exactly like any other destination.
Use it to show the approach from the road, the storefront, the neighborhood context. Place the dot ON the public road where Google's camera actually drove, not in the middle of private ground: Google snaps to its nearest captured imagery, and a dot far from any road can land somewhere unexpected.
Complete creates the Street View point at the tapped location. It stays greyed out and unclickable until you have actually tapped the map, so a stray click can never create a point at nowhere. On creation the point auto-names itself from the reverse-geocoded street, joins the Street View group, and its imagery opens right away as confirmation.
The created pose starts facing north with a level view. To set the exact direction visitors should face, press Edit on the new card afterward and paste a full Google Maps URL captured while facing the right way; the URL carries the heading.
Only press Complete when the dot is where you mean it. Until then you can keep tapping the map to move the dot, or press Cancel to walk away clean.
Cancel abandons the new Street View point: it disarms the crosshair cursor, removes the draft dot from the map, and returns you to the Street View list. Nothing is created and nothing is saved.
Use it any time you armed placement by accident or changed your mind. There is nothing to clean up afterward, the tour is untouched.
Open on a Street View card loads that point and opens its Google street imagery full-pane where your panoramas normally show, with a ‹ Back to editor pill in the corner. On the map, a teal arrow tracks your Street View position and rotates as you look around; travel along the road with Google's own arrows and the map pans to follow you.
Click Open, explore as long as you like, then click ‹ Back to editor to return. Wandering around in Street View changes nothing saved: the point's stored pose stays exactly what you set.
Use it to verify the imagery is the right spot and roughly the right direction before you rely on the point in a tour. If the view is wrong, press Edit on the same card and paste a corrected Google Maps URL.
Edit opens the Street View editor for that point. From there you can paste a new Google Maps URL to change the position and facing, remove the Street View while keeping the point, or delete the point entirely. The editor's Back returns you here to the list.
Use it whenever a card's imagery opens at the wrong spot or facing the wrong way: grab a fresh address-bar URL from Google Maps while looking exactly where you want visitors to look, then save it in the editor.
Each Street View card is a readout of the point: its name, its street address when Google's lookup found one, its exact coordinates to six decimals, and the Google Maps link it uses (the URL you saved, or one built from the stored position and facing). Clicking the link opens that exact pose in Google Maps in a new browser tab, outside the editor.
A photo thumbnail appears at the top of the card only when Google's static imagery service answers for this site's key; when Google refuses, the card simply renders without a picture and nothing is broken.
The link is your round-trip tool for retuning a pose: open it in the new tab, walk and turn inside Google Maps until the view is exactly right, copy the full URL from the browser's address bar, then press Edit on the card and paste it.
‹ Back to editor floats over the street imagery and closes it: the pano pane returns to your own panoramas and the tracking arrow leaves the map.
Nothing you did while browsing Street View is saved to the point, so feel free to travel blocks away before coming back. The point's stored pose is only ever changed by saving a URL in the Street View editor.
The URL field accepts a full Google Maps Street View address: the URL from the browser's address bar containing coordinates and a Street View pose (the form with @lat,lng followed by the panorama markers), or Google's legacy form with cbll= in the query. Shortened maps.app.goo.gl and goo.gl links cannot be resolved here, and a plain map URL with no Street View pose is rejected too: in both cases Save simply never lights up.
To get a good URL: open the spot on google.com/maps, drop into Street View, position yourself and face exactly the way visitors should look when they arrive, then copy the entire URL from the address bar and paste it here. The URL carries position, heading, tilt, and zoom, so the saved pose matches what was on your screen.
Set the facing deliberately: it is the first thing visitors see when they step into this point. Facing the property beats facing down the empty road.
Save writes the pose parsed from the URL onto this point: position, heading, tilt, and field of view. The button stays dimmed and unclickable until the pasted link actually parses, so if it looks grey your link is not a full address-bar Street View URL: shortened links and plain map links never enable it.
Paste, watch Save light up, press it. Saving also files the point into the Street View group and opens the imagery immediately, so a successful save always LOOKS successful, plus a confirmation toast names the point. The save is stamped with the time, which means it outranks any old deletion of a previous Street View on this point, even one made on another device.
Saving overwrites the previous pose with no history kept, so if you might want the old view back, keep its URL somewhere before saving a new one.
The status line under the field is a readout of what is currently SAVED on this point: coordinates to five decimals and the heading in degrees, or "No Street View set for this point." It reflects the last saved pose, never what you have typed in the field, so it only changes after a successful Save or a removal.
Use it as your receipt: after saving, confirm the coordinates and heading look like the spot you meant. Heading is degrees clockwise from north, so 0 faces north, 90 faces east, 180 south, 270 west.
Remove Street View from this point deletes the saved Street View pose while keeping the point itself: its name, position, tags, and place in the tour all survive. The button only appears when a pose is actually saved.
Press it and a toast confirms; the status line flips to "No Street View set for this point." The removal is recorded with a timestamp, so a stale copy of the tour on another device cannot silently resurrect the deleted Street View later: only a genuinely newer save wins.
Use it when the imagery was simply wrong for this point. You can paste a new URL and save again right away; removal and re-add in the same sitting is completely fine.
Delete this point entirely removes the whole point, not just its street imagery. After a confirm dialog naming the point, it moves to Deleted and leaves the Points list, the Street View group, and the map.
This is a soft delete: the point sits in Deleted and can be recovered, nothing is permanently erased here. The button is red because it is the biggest action in this panel, but it is not irreversible.
Use it when the Street View point should not exist at all, a duplicate or a spot you no longer want in the tour. If you only want different imagery, use Remove Street View from this point or paste a new URL instead. After deleting, re-aim or remove any floor tags that other points had pointed at it.
Back leaves the Street View editor and returns to wherever you came from: the Street View list if you arrived from the list's Edit button, otherwise the Share Point panel. Anything you saved stays saved; leaving commits nothing on its own.
If you pasted a URL but have not pressed Save, backing out discards the pasted text. Save first if you meant to keep it.
Google Street View under "Open external content from this point" opens the Street View editor for the point you have open, right here in the panel. From there you paste a full Google Maps URL to attach street imagery to this point.
It is the same editor you reach from Edit in the Street View menu; only the way in differs. Its Back returns you to this Share Point panel.
Use this route when you are already sharing a point and realize it should carry street imagery too; use the Street View menu when you are managing several Street View points at once.
