Title: roll-over hotspot display message in GUI
Post by: Nixxon on Fri 02/05/2003 10:48:59
how would i go about displaying a message in my GUI when i roll over a hotspot... eg. mouse rolls over "giant statue" "giant statue" appears in my (always on) GUI.
I have already added "mouse moves over hot spot" in my interaction editor. i'm assuming i have to add a text box/or label to my GUI... then script it accordingly.
cheers :)

If you make a label on your GUI you can type @OVERHOTSPOT@ in it, that gives the name of the hotspot the mouse is over.  Is that what you wanted?
