Everything you'd want to know before you install.
A detailed look at how 360° Product View PrestaShop — Spin Viewer from Image Sequence works, why we built it the way we did, and the thinking behind the features above.
The 360° view without a studio or a proprietary format
No 3D scanner or exotic file format required: a 360° view is just a series of photos taken all around the product, usually on a turntable. You shoot 24, 36, 48 or 72 evenly spaced images, in the same framing and lighting, name them in order, and the viewer rebuilds the rotation. The module handles import, sorting, resizing and display — you keep control over the shoot.
Natural interaction on every screen
Built on Pointer Events, the viewer treats mouse and touch the same way. Visitors grab the product and turn it whichever way they want; at the end of the gesture, inertia extends the rotation then gradually slows it down. Sensitivity is adjustable to match the number of frames in your sequence. On the keyboard, the arrows advance frame by frame and the space bar starts or pauses autoplay.
Fast by default, discreet for your theme
Images are only downloaded when the viewer becomes visible on screen, which avoids weighing down the initial load of the product page. A progress bar informs the visitor during preloading, then the rotation becomes available. On upload, every frame wider than the defined limit is resized server-side, for a controlled weight without degrading sharpness. The module overrides no template: it inserts itself through a display hook that you choose.
A back office designed for speed
From the dedicated catalog tab, you create a sequence, find the product through an instant search on its name, reference or ID, then drop all your images in one gesture. They are sorted by filename to respect the shooting order, uploaded in batches with a progress bar, then reorderable by drag and drop and deletable one by one. A preview button replays the rotation directly in the admin before you publish.
