Hotspot triggers a JavaScript function (with custom parameter) when it is clicked. You define the hotspot in the XML. Also in this example: custom movieClip is used for hotspot.

Existing Customers:
If you purchased the 3D Rotate Tool no more than 1 year ago (2 years for Enterprise Customers) you are eligible for a free update. If you made the purchase via ShareIt, you can download it here: http://my.yofla.com/ If you used some other way to purchase the tool, please contact me.
I posted an example for full 3D Rotation. You can download the example files and see how it is built. It’s simple, you just specify the right values for vertical and horizontal steps.
View and download the example here:
http://www.yofla.com/flash/3d-rotate/examples.php?exampleId=multiple
Note: The swf is created with the PRO version, with domain-locking feature enabled.
New Adobe AIR based Config Utility is avaiable:
If you don’t have the Adobe AIR runtime installed, you can download it here: http://get.adobe.com/air/
The new ConfigUtility should work also on Mac, but till now it was tested only on Win. Also, it’s the very first version, still beta, so some bugs might occur.
Download:
- It is included in 3DRT Free: http://www.yofla.com/flash/3d-rotate/download.php
- or direct download: http://www.yofla.com/down/3d-rotate/config-utility/ConfigUtility.air
Video tutorial:
- video tutorial on using the new ConfigUtility: http://www.yofla.com/flash/3d-rotate/tutorials/config-utility/
It has one really cool feature:
Adding hotspots using drag and drop!
Missing features:
- the previous ConfigUtility could export a .zip archive of the images and config.xml for easier integration. This is not supported yet.
- one can add only the “image” or “close-up” hotspot. If you want to add a “zoom”, “url” or “javaScript” hotspot you must edit the .xml in an editor
- the image hotspot can not be nested using the utility, again you need to edit the config.xml by hand to add nested hotspots.
Some notes:
- as metioned, it’s the first release. Many improvements can be done. I welcome your feedback so I know what features/improvements are the most wanted.
- the free/demo version has a limitation of 64images. For all PRO and Enterprise customers, I’ll set up a web-page where they can generate their license code to unlock the utility. (This code is auto-generated for every new purchase, so if you plan to switch to PRO version now, you will receive the key with the order. )
I am sorry that the license generator is not ready yet for the past customers. If your need the new config utility very urgent, and the 64image limit is limiting you, drop me an email and I generate you the code manually.
Update:
If you have purchased the 3DRT Pro Flexi or Enterprise befor the Config Utility was avaiable, you can get the unlock code using the client’s zone: http://blog.yofla.com/2009/09/download-area-for-yofla-clients/
Version 4.5.13 of the tool was released.
Bugfixes:
- mouseWheelZooms option fixed (did not work due an error in the code)
New features:
- new ConfigUtility, free for PRO and Enterprise Users
- option to turn on displaying of version number in right click menu in the Enterprise edition. From now on the version number is hidden by default. Usage: set showVersionNumber=”true” in userInterface node to show the 3DRT version number in rightclick menu.
- when rotating an object using arrows in the zoom mode, the large images do not get loaded, until the arrow is depressed. This saves bandwidth and makes the rotating smoother.
Other:
- free version does not support zooming from now on

Version 4.5.9 of the tool was released.
Just few moments before leaving for vacation I am releasing the latest version, there are two minor updates:
- support for “top” and “down” arrows in the multi-level rotation
- large images do not get loaded when rotating by dragging in zoom mode.

The 4.5.5 version of the tool has a “bug”. A code implemented for one client got into the production version and will cause that the 4.5.5 version will stop working in July 2010.
I’ll email the fixed 4.5.6 version to all my PRO and Enterprise clients today. FREE users, be aware, use the 4.5.4 version instead!
Version 4.5.5 of the tool was released. There is one fix:
- a bug which was introduced in 4.5.3 is fixed (startButton did not show)
Version 4.5.4 of the tool was also released before. There are two new options:
- verticalSensitivity : pixel span in vertical direction after which images at a next level are shown (when multidirectional / multi level object is used)
- arrowInterval : number of milliseconds after a new image is displayed, if an arrow button is pressed. The smaller the value, the faster the objects rotates.

- option to show toggleRotateButton and togglePanButton only when zoomed
- rotateZoom option – if enabled the app zooms back to 0% after zoom-in was pressed at 100%
