Play tours in KML files.
KML, the file format used by Google Earth, supports creating tours, which can control the viewpoint of the scene, hide and show content, and play audio. Tours allow you to easily share tours of geographic locations, which can be augmented with rich multimedia. Runtime allows you to consume these tours using a simple API.
The sample will load the KMZ file from ArcGIS Online. When a tour is found, the Play button will be enabled. Use Play and Pause to control the tour. Use the Reset button to return the tour to the unplayed state.
This sample is graphics intensive and includes audio. Performance may be poor on emulated and remote devices. Run the sample on a physical device for best performance.
