The main part of the dialog shows the image on which the hotspots are
defined. A hotspot is identified by a line indicating its shape.
The toolbar at the top of the dialog contains the following tools:
• Apply button: click this button to apply the changes.
• Load, Save, and Select icons.
• Tools for drawing a hotspot shape: these tools work in exactly the
same way as the corresponding tools in the Drawing toolbar.
• Edit, Move, Insert, Delete Points: advanced editing tools to
manipulate the shape of a polygon hotspot. Select the Edit Points
tool to activate the other tools.
• Active icon: toggles the status of a selected hotspot between
active and inactive.
• Macro: associates a macro with the hotspot instead of just
associating an hyperlink.
• Properties: sets the hyperlink properties and adds the Name
attribute to the hyperlink.
Below the toolbar, specify for the selected hotspot:
• Address: the address pointed by the hyperlink. You can also point
to an anchor in a document; to do this, write the address in this
format: file:///<path>/document_name#anchor_name
• Text: type the text that you want to be displayed when the mouse
pointer is moved over the hotspot.
• Frame: where the target of the hyperlink will open: pick among
_blank (opens in a new browser window), _self (opens in the
active browser window), _top or _parent.
Tip
The value _self for the target frame will work just fine in the vast
majority of occasions. It is therefore not recommended to use
the other choices unless absolutely necessary.
Using OOo’s drawing tools
You can use Ooo’s drawing tools to create graphics such as simple
diagrams using rectangles, circles, lines, text, and other predefined
shapes. You can also group several drawing objects to make sure they
maintain their relative position and proportion.
You can place the drawing objects directly on a page in your document,
or you can insert them into a frame.
