Setting the timing of hotspots
Setting the timing of hotspots
You can set a hotspot’s begin and end time so that its link is active only for a specified duration in the presentation.
For example, suppose your presentation shows a video of two different product demonstrations, one after the other.
You can add a hotspot for each product, which is linked to the product’s web page, and then set the begin and end
time for each anchor to match the portion of the video that demonstrates each particular product; each hotspot’s link
is active only when the corresponding product is being shown in the video.
Note: A hotspot’s start time is relative to the start time of the item rather than the start time of the presentation.
To use the Timeline Editor to set the timing of a hotspot
1 Position the pointer on the left or right edge of the timeline bar; the double-arrow icon appears.
2 Drag the edge to the new time.
Drag the hotspot’s right edge to set its end time.
