bogari0171 Posted August 19, 2020 Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 I would like to zoom to a specific location on a map, starting on a much larger geographical image (eg starting from the full image of France and ending on a small village on the cote d'azur). The zoom factor may be well over 10, it could even be 50 or more. Does anyone have suggestions or already experience on this? What type of map would be recommended to start with? (Google earth,...?)

jkb Posted August 19, 2020 Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 you can get Google earth to do a fly in & then save it as an MP4 & use that in PTE Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedom Posted August 19, 2020 Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Hi, I made a huge zoom out with PTE 11 years ago (from Manhattan to global view of Earth). I used several captures of Google Earth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogari0171 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Thanks JIll. It sounds like a good suggestion. Nevertheless I do not understand how I can slow down the fly in. It seems to me to proceed automatically too fast, and I do not find any control button to control the speed in order to slow it down!

bogari0171 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Thanks Dom I am in line with this solution As you can see from my last reply I am trying to understand how to control the zoom speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bogari0171 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Thanks Dave. Excellent suggestion! So I should accept the Google earth speed, and then adjust it with PTE Claudio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedom Posted August 19, 2020 Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Jill suggested a VIDEO capture of Google Earth. My method was made with 5 or 6 different IMAGE captures of Google Earth. And I animated those captures within PTE to create the illusion : zoom out and opacity from 100 to 0 of each individual image to make the next capture appears + several animations of other objects like clouds and plane + effects like camera shaking.

bogari0171 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Thanks Dom I have also used in the past the same solution you are describing It is a little painful, and I thought that new ways are now possible Claudio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
