PURPOSE = Using vdsobj.dll reduces the size of final exe by 10 if
graphics are used. One meg of bmps = 100 kb of gifs same images,. Sometimes better.

Seeking the method {script} to use specfic hot spots {click events}
on top of:

OBJECT ADD,GRAPHIC,GRAPHIC1,0,0,434,305,#graphic.gif,

using bmps, I simply add the following line in vds:

DIALOG ADD,BITMAP,eval,260,250,180,35,,HINT,CLICK,HAND

The above line adds specific geographical hotspot {CLICK,HAND} on top of the larger bmp image using VDS Dialog only.

The need: Line of code {or lines} to use if using vdsobj.dll and gifs to place various specific hotspots (click,hand} events on top of the larger
gif image?

I do not wish to place an actual image for click event.
Example: Large Gif image with multiple buttons built into image.
place hotspots {click,hand} over the buttons! But, I can not!

Thanks, nt

You can not?

[PGWARE]

Try to add other GRAPHIC objects over the top of GRAPHIC1 similar to how you place BITMAP objects for the hotspots. Use blank images and use the CLICK style on each of these objects.
