how to create a pologynal hotspot?

Hi,

if you want to use polygonal hotspots (but note - Flash-only) you don't need to create an image hotspot.

Do it that way:

1. include the editor plugin in the xml:
   
   
   Code

   <plugin url="editor.swf" keep="true" />

2. start the pano (with Flash)
3. click the [editor] button
4. click the [hotspots] button
5. click the [add / edit polygonal hotspot] button
6. do a double-click to start drawing the polygonal hotspot
7. do single-clicks to add new points
8. do a double-click again to finish the hotspot drawing
9. click the [back] button
10. click the
    
    XML

    button

11. XML

    look in the xml code for the hotspot - e.g. it will look like this:
    [code]<hotspot name="hs1">
    	<point ath="-49.58" atv="-17.02" />
    	<point ath="9.51" atv="-26.98" />
    	<point ath="27.68" atv="14.47" />
    	<point ath="8.00" atv="38.95" />
    	<point ath="-49.80" atv="31.56" />
    	<point ath="-58.99" atv="14.02" />
    </hotspot>

12. copy that hotspot xml code and insert it with an text editor into your xml
13. adjust the look/style of the hotspot by adding/setting custom settings,
    for all available settings look here at 'polygonal hotspot structure':
    https://krpano.com/docu/xml/#hotspot
14. add events to hotspot - e.g. onover, onout and onclick events...

Best regards,

I have a problem.

When I create a polygonal hotspot plugin editor, I get the coordinates of the points with an accuracy of 1 decimal places, and you have some example of 2 decimal places.

How did this happen? I need more accuracy in describing the hotspot.

After 1 hour:
I solved the problem by writing xml.
I used the command trace, copy the data, and edited in a text editor.

<events onkeydown="create" /> 


<action name="create"> 
if (keycode == 32, create_hs(get(hotspot.count))) 
</action> 


<action name="create_hs"> 
addhotspot("hs%1"); 
screentosphere(mouse.x, mouse.y, toh, tov); 
set(hotspot[hs%1].url, "images/point.png"); 
set(hotspot[hs%1].scale, "0.2"); 
set(hotspot[hs%1].ath, get(toh)); 
set(hotspot[hs%1].atv, get(tov)); 
trace('ath="', toh, '" atv="', tov,'"'); 
</action>
