A hotspot is an area on the visual image that is of more interest. A hotspot allows you to view detailed information of a model component in a pictorial way. You can assign additional information to a hotspot such as model, equipment, and instruction to which users can navigate to. A published object can be tagged to a hotspot, allowing you to tag supported objects without the need to create a new revision for the object. You can assign hotspots to models, equipment, instruction steps, documents, locations, spare parts, and szstems and include relevant specifications.
