Users draw a hotspot object the same way that they draw other objects of that shape (line, box, circle, ellipse, or icon). Then, either users or the client application can provide the hotspot data, depending on whether the hotspot data prompt is enabled.
To place a hotspot through an API integration:
· If the user supplies the data, use the PlaceHotspot transaction.
or
· If the integration supplies the data, use the PlaceHotspotAndData transaction.
When the user places a hotspot on the active edit layer, Imagenation sends a NotifyIM -- HotspotPlaced notification, if it has been registered.
At any time, you can delete a hotspot from a layer.
To delete a hotspot:
· Use the DeleteHotspot transaction.
The specified hotspot is removed. If more than one hotspot on the specified edit layer has the same identifier, they are deleted as well.
When a hotspot is deleted from the active edit layer through the user interface, Imagenation sends a NotifyIM -- HotspotDeleted notification, if it has been registered.
