How to Animate a Hotspot

SeekBeak natively supports animated SVG and APNG files. Upload your own animated icons and they will just magically animate!

If you don't have an animated icon, don't fret. A great way to draw some attention to your Hotspots is by adding a built in animation to the Hotspot. You can do this by clicking the Animate button in the "Options" section of a Hotspot's property menu.

From here you get two animation options: Seesaw and Pulse. Seesaw swings the icon back and forth as you see with this Hotspot. Pulse gives a gentle visual outline that borders the Hotspot.

We've put in a couple of subtle "SeeSaw" and "Pulse" animations in This Demo
