Hot spots in visual scenes #50

Open sancarder opened 8 years ago

sancarder commented 8 years ago

Hi @SteveALee - I was thinking about the hotspots and how we're going to go on about them. It's not the priority right now, let's get the photo viewer going first! But here are a few links to how this can be done in html and javascript. I'm not sure if that's applicable to you at all, but perhaps give you some ideas:

What code language do you use? I can do some more research if you tell me a little bit of prerequisites.

(please reassign this issue if you feel it's already fits in here somewhere)

@sancarder

Excellent thanks. I was thinking of the old HTML image maps which I think is the same as you mention.

Brian is a HTML/CSS/Javascript app and while it doesn't use jQuery we could include it if required. Technically Brian is a so called SPA (Single Page App) which means much of the functionality is in javascript in the web browser with APIs called from various services. We will eventually have serverside rendering as well so it works on older browsers.

Thanks
