Hotspots are interactive areas you can add to a slide in an iDetail slide deck. They give you enhanced functionality when they are tapped when presenting from the iDetail iOS app on the iPad.
For example, instead of swiping through every slide, you can use a hotspot to jump immediately to another slide in a different part of the slide deck. Or you can initiate other actions, like playing a video or displaying a PDF document.
