Summary

Reports a list of the clickable hot spots in a QuickTime VR movie.

Introduced1.0
Changes

This property was deprecated in version 8.1.0 due to the retirement of the QuickTime player implementation. In order to support 64-bit on Mac we have been required to switch to using AVFoundation on Mac, which does not support QTVR. In addition, the Windows player object is now based on DirectShow, as Apple have dropped support for the QuickTime libraries previously used.

Description

Use the hotspots property to list the clickable spots of a QuickTime VR movie.

Each hot spot of a QuickTime VR movie is a clickable link, usually from one node to another. The movie author sets the hot spots during development of the movie. The user clicks a hot spot in the player to activate the link.

If the player does not contain a QuickTime VR movie, its hotspots property is empty.
