Selection logic of hotspots

Hotspots have (besides normal and highlight) also a selected state. This selected state is created when you display / play the hotspot with one of the actions Show Image, Show Video, Show Text or Play Sound content. The selected state is not exclusive, i.e. any number of hotspots can be selected at the same time. 

 

This logic was changed with the change to version 2020.4.

Training-props-Legacy-Hotspot-single-selection

Up to version 2020.3, one hotspot could be in selected state at a time, i.e. when a new hotspot was placed in selected state, this simultaneously ended the selected state for the other hotspot. If you have built a training that relies on this logic, please enable Hotspot Single Selection in the legacy options of the training. Since version 2020.4, any number of hotspots (independently) can be in the selected state.
