Adding rollover images

Rollover images are unique. They consist of an image and a rollover area (the "hot" area). Rollover
images appear when the end user moves the mouse over the hot area at runtime. They are useful
for heavily detailed slides or for slides that contain buttons or toolbars that require explanation.
You can use the same type of graphics for rollover images that you use for traditional images. You
can also customize the location, outline, and size of the rollover area for rollover images.
To add a rollover image:
Open an Adobe Captivate project.

In Storyboard view, double-click the slide to which you want to add a rollover image.
