How Jump Hot Spots Appear in Help

After you build the Help file, users can identify hot spots in two ways:

nBy default, the text in jump hot spots (if they are not formatted as invisible) appear as green, underlined text.

nWhen the mouse pointer moves over a jump hot spot, the pointer changes from an arrow to a hand. This change occurs whether or not the hot spot is visible.

Figure 8.8 shows a Help topic that has all three types of hot spots. Notice the hot areas created by each type of hot spot. To choose a hot spot, users position the mouse pointer over a hot spot and click the left mouse button.

When the user clicks a hot spot, Help processes the associated action immediately. The action occurs at the moment the mouse button is depressed.
