I have a panoramic jpeg image created in Thea render (from a Sketchup model). I can bring the image into P'shop and in the 3D mode can rotate the view in all directions. However, when I export the panorama it just saves it as a flat jpeg image and I'm not able to rotate the view. I've attemped several time but obviously missing something. Would like to save as an mp4 and import into a pdf document

To view the exported 360 spherical panorama jpeg  from photoshop properly you need to use a 360 spherical panorama viewer. Using such a viewer you should be able to rotate the panorama like you can in Photoshop. A 3d Sherical panorama in Photoshop is not like a normal Photoshop 3d layer.  You will not be able to create a video time line and animate the 360 spherical layer.  You should try creating the video you want in sketchup.

thanks for your reply. I'l give the link a try. I did manage to export a video from the panoramic image, but not interactive.

The final image has to be hi-res so Sketchup render is too basic.

If you use chrome you may want to look into 360 cities extension to see what is possible on the web

360 cities tab extension  Install the extension, When you open a new tab in Chrome tot will be given the opportunity of viewing examples still, tours, Video all 360 interactive.
