The Open Action

The Open action allows you to resume work inside the perspective edit document associated with that view.

What It TargetsIt locates the embedded Smart Object layer (360 Edit Source - View N) in the master panorama and opens its contents as a standalone PSB editing document.
Expected BehaviorPhotoshop immediately brings the perspective document to the front. The session status badge updates to Editing, and the main PanoView Editor panel switches its primary button to Apply View Edits.
When It Is AvailableAvailable whenever the editable source Smart Object layer exists in the master panorama and the document is not already open.
03

The Go to View Action

The Go to View action returns the 360° camera to the stored orientation and framing parameters associated with that session.

Camera Orientation RecallReturns the 360° camera to the stored orientation parameters associated with that session, restoring the recorded Heading, Pitch, and Field of View settings.
Inspection UtilityUse this action to inspect seam blending, verify retouching continuity with surrounding walls, or confirm whether additional touchups are required in that sector.
04

The Delete Action & Safeguards

Deleting a session removes its tracking records from the panorama document. Because this action affects session continuity, PanoView Editor enforces safety checks:

Session Deletion Safeguards:

• Confirmation Prompt: Clicking Delete triggers a confirmation prompt asking you to confirm removal before any data is altered.

• Active Document Blocking Condition: Deletion CANNOT proceed while the perspective edit document is currently open in Photoshop. If the PSB file is open, PanoView Editor blocks deletion and alerts you to save or close the document first.
