23.10.1 Creating hotspots for image maps

You can provide a single hotspot or multiple hotspots per image map:

Multiple hotspots per image

Single hotspot per image.

Multiple hotspots per image

To create an image map with multiple hotspots:

1. Prepare the graphic as you normally do, placing it in an anchored frame.

2. Place a text frame inside the anchored frame, wherever you want a hotspot; you can expand the text frame to cover whatever part of the graphic you want included in the hotspot.

3. Click inside the text frame, and insert a hypertext gotolink marker. Or you can insert a message URL hypertext link, to create a jump to a destination outside the FrameMaker document. See §34.1.2 Using markers to add links and instructions.

Single hotspot per image

To create an image map with a single hotspot that includes the entire image:

1. Place an anchored frame At Insertion Point in an empty paragraph.

2. Place the graphic in the anchored frame, and shrink-wrap it.

3. Put the hypertext link marker in the same paragraph.

4. To avoid having the placeholder paragraph itself show in the output, include the following setting in the configuration file:

[HTMLParaStyles]

Paraname=Raw

where Paraname is the name of the placeholder paragraph format.

5. (Optional) To eliminate blue borders from anchored frames, include the following setting in the configuration file:

[GraphAttr]

*=border="0"
