Add or modify a hotspot
A picture can contain one or more clickable hyperlinked areas that are called hotspots, which function like any other hyperlink. You can also set a default hyperlink for all other areas on the picture where you haven't defined a hotspot.
The Pictures toolbar provides tools that enable you to draw rectangular, circular and polygonal-shaped hotspots on an image. After you draw the hotspot, the Insert Hyperlink dialog box appears for you to specify the link for the hotspot. You can highlight hot spots on a picture in Microsoft Expression Web, such as when it's hard for you to see the hot spot outlines on the picture.
