Is there a guide to the polygon hotspots? I could not find anything!
Somehow I can not work with the polygon hotspots like the Point hotspots. I can not even insert a text box or insert other functions. I actually just link to a website. That would be somewhat less. Anyone have any ideas?

HI,
What seems to be the problem?
You can add them like area hotspots and use Hotspot proxy ID's
Please see this video to see how to add them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... vKKOfiBLT8
If you have any other problems please let me know.

Hello Hopki,
thanks for your answer! My goal is actually the polygon hotspots treated exactly like the hotspots! So them text fields, action and so on. In the hotspots I have no problems with it! If I want to do in the same way that it does not work at the Polygonhospots. You write that I should use proxies. Is there a manual? Hotspot Part 6 describes not what I want.
Again my situation:
I have a hotspot with actions Panoarama. Now I want to set up another PolygonHotSpot I want to show with actions and text.
How do I assign the PolygonHotSpot to the actions or the text boxes?

Thank you very much

Hi,
I understand this is a Google Translation but I do not understand the question.
Please use screen shots/print screens to show what you want.
Poly hotspots work in the same way as point hotspots so I do not understand why they do not do as you require?

I'll try my best:
First I put in my Panarama hotspots leading to other panoramas. Is the mouse over the hotspot will see a text box. Now I put a PolygonHotSpot an area in the Panorama at the later also another text box appears when you go with your mouse over this area. If the area is clicked an action should be performed.

Question taken much simpler: How can I assign the PolygonHotSpot actions?

Probably all think I'm crazy!! :?

Hi,
Ok, got it.
Open the hotspot editor and add a poly hotspot, the default is poly01 for the first one.

Now in the skin editor add a node marker and give it the Proxy ID: poly01.

You now give the node market actions to do what you want.
When you mouse enter or click the area of the poly the relevant actions in the node marker will be activated.
This can be show and hide, set text and so on.
