Is there a way to view an image in 360 mode?
I want to view a panoramic image in SeaDragon but when I reach the left or the right border of the image, the fun ends. Is there a way to continue infinately (360 rotation), like, for instance, Google Maps does with the world map? And if not, will this feature be implemented in the future?
I’m hopeful

Exciting news -- this has been implemented, and we've shipped this in an update to Seadragon Ajax!
We worked with Wouter Storm and his design agency to enable wrapping support (AKA "360 mode") that lets you pan infinitely on panoramas, maps, etc. that are meant to be connected at the edges.
You can take a look at their site to now see Seadragon Ajax with wrapping support in action: http://www.panorama-mesdag.com/#pagina=1149.
The API for this is simple; Seadragon.Config has a few new options: wrapHorizontal, wrapVertical and wrapOverlays. Simply turn on wrapHorizontal or wrapVertical to enable wrapping, and optionally turn on wrapOverlays if you want any overlays on the image to automatically re-adjust as the image pans.
As the documentation clearly states, this is an experimental API for now. Our team has been super busy on a variety of projects, and part of the compromise we had to make in shipping this was that it wouldn't get thoroughly tested. It's also not optimized. But we figured in this case that it was better to ship what we had than wait indefinitely for resources.
So we hope you enjoy it! And thanks for the encouragement to implement this feature.
I’m excited

Inappropriate?There isn't yet!
I thought about this during development but it didn't bubble up as high priority. I have an idea for how to implement this, so maybe I'll give it a quick whirl one of these days and see if it works. =)
I hope you can live with the regular way for now!

Dear Aseem Kishore,
Refering to http://getsatisfaction.com/livelabs/t... I would like to mail our official request for the devellopment of the SeaDragon Ajax 360 functionality. I would like to ask which mail adres to contact so I can send the official request and back ground info documents.
I coordinate this devellopment for the museum. Also I'm related to the International Panorama Council, to which many museums are assiociated who could have big advantage using the same SeaDragon Ajax 360 functionality. Please e-mail me at: RNW@schiedamsesingel217.nl
Regards, Wouter Storm

Inappropriate?That would be great!
Thank you for the quick response, hope you can find the time to implement this option.
Oh and great piece of JavaScript by the way. ;)
I’m happy
