Adding and removing hot spot distractors
You can include from one to eight distractors (choices) in a Hot Spot learning interaction.
You can change the default number of six distractors by adding more distractors or deleting
existing distrators.
In general, you place the hot spot distractors over another graphic that the user is really
intended to see. You might want to make your hot spot assets semi-invisible during authoring
to visualize this effect. You can do this by turning the alpha effect setting down on each hot
spot. The interaction scripts override this setting at runtime.
To add a hot spot distractor:
1. Create a movie clip symbol containing the graphics for the distractor object. For example,
if you have an image that will have six hot spots, and you want to add a seventh choice,
create a movie clip of the seventh graphic and place it in the library.
2.
Select the Hot Spot component on the Stage, and then drag the symbol from the Library
panel to the Stage.
3.
In the Property inspector, name the instance. See
distractors" on page
4.
Add the instance name to the Component inspector for the hot spot.
The component does the rest of the work automatically at runtime.
To remove a hot spot distractor:
1. Select the hot spot instance that you want to remove, and delete it from the Stage.
2. Select the Hot Spot component (to the left of the Stage in the quiz template), and then
display the Component inspector (Window > Component Inspector).
3. Remove the deleted object's instance name from the list in the Component inspector.
