Edit hotspots on a scene

Place clickable markers inside a 360 scene: informational content, external links, or links to another tour, with the click-to-place editor.

Steps

  1. Open your destination from /creator/destinations, click the scene's name in the Scenes section, then click Edit scene. Scroll to the section called Hotspots and scene links.
  2. In the Hotspots subsection, click Add hotspot. The 360 viewer above highlights and shows the message: Click anywhere inside the 360 view to place the point.
  3. Click the exact spot in the panorama where the marker should sit. The form below captures the position for you: there is no drag and no manual coordinate entry for hotspots.
  4. Give the hotspot a Title (required), then choose what it does: Show content, Open external URL, or Link to another tour.
  5. For Show content, write the text learners see in the Content box (plain text or small HTML). You can also add an external link; include the https:// part. For Link to another tour, pick a Target tour from the dropdown: only tours that have opted in to external linking appear there.
  6. Click Save hotspot. The marker appears immediately in the live viewer at the top of the page, which is the same viewer learners use.
  7. To change a hotspot's wording or type, click Edit next to it in the list. To move one, delete it and place a new one at the right spot: there is no reposition control yet. Careful with Delete: it removes the hotspot immediately, with no confirmation prompt.
