The Hotspot item type asks the candidate to click on the correct area of an image. Use this article to upload an image, define one or more hotspots, and configure scoring.
Hotspot is auto-scored.

Create a Hotspot item
In a collection, select + Add and choose Hotspot.
- Enter the title for internal use.
- Enter the question in the rich text editor. Add media or resources as needed.
- Under Create hotspot, select an image from the media library or upload a new one. Use Select or Add File.
- Define one or more hotspots on the image. Each tool draws a clickable area.
Drawing tools
- Pen to draw a freehand area.
- Rect to draw a rectangle.
- Ellipse to draw an oval.

Hotspots appear in red. The number of hotspots is listed below the image. Select x next to a hotspot to delete just that one.

Scale the image
Below the editor, choose to scale the image to fit the candidate's screen. This prevents scrolling on smaller displays.
