Hi everyone,

I'm using Object2VR since a few days, and I managed to use polygon hotspots and some other tools, make links and show pdf files but I meet a problem with icons. I would like to show an icon visible on my turntable (like a Point Hotspot) and when the mouse hover this icon, I would like to make visible a polygon hotspot I already draw. Is it possible, and if yes, how can I do it. I'm a bit lost.

I hope it was clear. I already search on the forum and I don't find a solution, maybe my vocabulary was not good. Thanks in advance!

Hi Gregoire,
The simplest way is to add a Hotspot Template with an image and make it permeable.
Then add all your polygon hotspots, in the web output, under the heading Hotspots, and set the polygon hotspot to "Show Current".
Then all you have to do is add a point hotspot inside the polygon area.
Please see the attached project.

The point hotspot shows the viewer where the active area is.
As the point hotspot is permeable, the mouse will enter the polygon hotspot, and it will show.
In the attached project, I am using the Skin-ID, ht_poly.
Regards,
