[Xerte] Re: download file pdf

[Kemp Johnathan]

Hello Matteo,

Sorry I don't have time to test this solution before suggesting it.

Check out the Xerte help files.

I don't think that by default an image icon is sensitive to mouse events
and thus will not trigger an onRelease event.

However you can add a hotObject icon to an interaction and then add an
image icon as a child of the hotObject. This will allow mouse events to be
detected by the image. I am not sure if the event will be triggered by the
hot object or the image. If it is the hot object icon then you may need to
use the rs property rather than the id property to identify the hotObject
icon when specifying what object sends the event.

Kind regards

Johnathan
