That's predicated on the assumption that you're using a

Of course, keep in mind it's all RAM-based so if your

Do you know anything else about Panorama?
Very little.

I was going to do this in Rev with screen shots of Panorama

Are Pano and Rev related at all???
Only in as much as their data is RAM-based rather than paged from disk. No other connection that I know of.
I don't really have time to learn Pano to do the demo from within it. I saw the scripting in Pano and it looked different than Rev. what are your thoughts??
Why interact between the two? If Panorama is no longer viable for the project it's being used on could it just be moved to Rev?
