222 Chapter 9: EventStream To create a Hotspot event: 1. Select an existing marker or click Add to create as many markers as needed. This enables you to add multiple hotspots to a specific time. 2. Choose Hotspot from the Events menu. 3. Use the Duration menu to select when the hotspot event ends. This can be either To Out Point or To Current Time. To use a specific time, step through the movie to the time you want to end the hotspot and choose To Current Time. 4. Use the Shape menu to choose a rectangular or oval hotspot. Note: Cleaner can also read custom polygon hotspots imported from movies created in video editing systems, such as Discreet cinestream, but you cannot edit their shape in Cleaner. 5. In the Project window, click and drag where you want the hotspot. Red handles similar to the cropping rectangle let you resize the hotspot. You can also click and drag inside the hotspot to move it around the frame. 6. Click Add Action to associate an action with the hotspot. If desired, you can add multiple actions to a hotspot. The hotspot action is added to the event list directly under the hotspot event. Initially, the hotspot action is not associated with a time. All hotspot actions have the same time and duration as the hotspot that they reference. 7. Choose an event type for the action using the Events menu. 8. Assign the necessary information for the action you choose. Play The Play event (QuickTime) can only be used as an action associated with a hotspot and only works with QuickTime files. Typically, use this option on a movie that contains an interactive menu or is using its own custom play and pause controls. For example, create a movie that uses custom play and pause buttons embedded into the movie instead of using the default QuickTime controls. To add a play button: 1. Add a hotspot event to the movie play button. 2. Click Add Action. 3. Choose Play from the Events menu. 4. Repeat steps 1 and 3 to add a hotspot and action to the pause button. 5. To keep the standard QuickTime controller from appearing when the movie is opened in a Web page, uncheck the Add movie controller option in the Create HTML panel of the Output tab.
