You can add hot spots to text or graphics in your Help topics.
To create a jump or pop-up hot spot
1.1.Select the text or graphic that you want to use to create the hot spot.
Be careful not to select any part of the topic that you do not want to include in the hot spot.
2.2.From the Insert menu, choose Jump Or Pop-Up Hot Spot.
The Insert Jump Or Pop-Up Hot Spot dialog box appears.
For a complete explanation of each of the entries in this dialog box, see Chapter 8, “Creating Links and Hot Spots.”
3.3.Edit the text in the Text box, if necessary.
If you select text or a bitmap reference before choosing the command, the selected text appears in the Text box when the dialog box opens. If you select a picture that has been pasted into the topic, “—Picture Hot Spot—” replaces the Text box since the picture has no text and cannot be edited.
Note Although this entry is required, the template does not check the text or bitmap name for correctness.
4.4.Type the context string of the destination topic.
Note Although this entry is required, the template does not check for the existence of the context string or for correct syntax. It does check for illegal characters, however.
5.5.Select the type of hot spot you want to create.
6.6.Select the Unformatted check box if you want the hot spot to appear as authored (no underline, custom color) rather than the standard underlined-green text.
7.7.If the jump is to a topic in a separate Help file, type the name of the Help file in the File Name box.
Note These jumps do not include jumps to topics in any topic file included in the current Help project file.
8.8.If the jump is to a topic that you want displayed in a secondary window, type the name of the secondary window in the Window Name box.
Note A pop-up window cannot be displayed in a secondary window. If you choose Pop-Up as the hot-spot type and try to enter a name here, a dialog box appears and prompts you to choose between a pop-up or secondary window.
9.9.Choose OK.
