As the point hotspot centers in the player the "call out" activates.
How does it work?
The Hotspot has a Custom Property which adds a Hotspot Variable to the skin, this is a true/false variable set to false.

The variable has a variable logic block that when the point hotspot is within 35% of the centre of the player it will change to true.
In the skin is a Hotspot Template which has a few elements, rectangles and text boxes, that make up the call-out point hotspot you see in the output.
Each element has actions to change its Scale, the text boxes their Alpha.
The actions use a Variable Changed Source Action with an action filter to make sure the correct action is triggered when it should.
The call out builds when the variable is true and collapses when it is false.
Here is the first action from the element, Rectangle "info_1,

There is also a second action that changes the scale back when the variable is false.
Each action has a delay, so one element at a time build up when the variable is true, and it deconstructs when it is false.
The Text boxes have the actions to open the required elements to show a URL, Image or Video.
