[Xerte] Using hotspots in Xerte raw

Many thanks.

I don't know what I was doing wrong but having deleted my interaction
and then recreated it with the structure you used below it now works

Over and Out :-)

Hello Julian,

Thanks for the quick response.

_visible did the trick :-)

Still struggling with the event.

I have 

Interaction

    hotspot

        script (triggered by onRollOn event as hotspot click property is
set to 0)

    event

        script (I assume this will trigger when I have the event set up
properly)

the hotspot has an rs value : hs_01_PerfSupp

the event has values

    eventName : onRollOut

    icon : hs_01_PerfSupp

    erase : 1

    exit : 0

But the event script never gets run.

What have I missed?

Kind regards

Johnathan

Use the onRollOut event of the hotspot. Give it an rs identifier. Then
add an event response:

Icon: yourRSFor YourHotspot

EventName:onRollOut

_visible is the property.

On a page I have an interaction which contains a hotspot.

I want to display a text block when the hotspot is rolled over and hide
the text block when the mouse pointer is subsequently moved off the
hotspot.

I have hit two issues.

1. I can fire a script when the mouse moves over the hotspot, but I
can't find a way to detect when the mouse moves off the hotspot to
trigger some script.

2. I haven't found a way to hide a text icon - there does not appear to
be a visible property and I have not been able to set its alpha to 0

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Kind regards 

Johnathan
