Asset Based Overlays and Hotspots
Updated yesterday

Overlays and hotspots are essential tools for creating engaging and interactive experiences. Previously, they could only be added globally, meaning their positions remained fixed regardless of creative rotations—such as in a 3D Cube layout.

With our new asset-based overlays and hotspots feature, you can now assign specific overlays or hotspots to individual assets. This ensures that when an asset changes, the associated overlay or hotspot transitions accordingly—disappearing with the old asset and revealing new elements tied to the next one.

NB! This feature is not available for the following layouts:

  • Blinds

  • Blinds swipe

  • Unblur on touch

  • Unblur with scroll

  • Roller Horizontal

  • Roller Vertical

  • Splitscreen

  • Survey

  • VR showroom

For all other layouts, asset-based overlays and hotspots can be used.

Example Use Case

Imagine a 3D Cube layout where each side showcases different products. Instead of global overlays, individual "Buy Now" hotspots are placed on each product's side. The first side of the cube can also display business details or special sales information.

Key Features

  1. Per-Asset Assignment

    • Assign overlays and hotspots to specific assets in your creative.

    • Up to six overlays or hotspots can be added per asset, offering flexibility in design.

  2. Dynamic Transitions

    • Overlays and hotspots disappear with one asset and appear with the next.

    • This behavior ensures a cleaner and more context-sensitive user experience.

  3. Customization Options

    • Overlays allow animations and editing to make your creative more dynamic.

    • Hotspots can be personalized with custom pins, close icons, and other settings.

  4. Easy Management

    • Track the number of elements added to each asset via the display counter next to their names.

This new feature is designed to make your creatives more polished and engaging. Try asset-based overlays and hotspots today and see the difference in interactivity!
