Welcome to the Chosen Hotspot Development System

This program is copyrighted by Chosen Systems, Inc., Copyright 1998

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Purpose of the program;
-----------------------
	The Chosen hotspot development program is designed to create hotspots on high resolution bitmap images. This type of capabilities are usefull for displaying technicnal drawings or site layouts where either a link to another graphic or display of audio, video or pictures would give further detail and information. The program allows the user to pan and zoom the image and hotspots.
	The demo program, included, is a combination of two separate programs, the Chosen Hotspot Developer and the Chosen Hotspot Viewer. When the program is run a nuisance screen will periodically display. The nuisance screen will give the user the ability to switch from one program demo to another.
	Online documentation is found in the help files and can be launched from the menu bar at the top of the program screen.
	The registered version of the program includes two programs. One is the development system which may not be copied. The viewer program is to be distributed with the graphics and hotspot configuration files to be installed on the users computer.

After installation of the VR5 runtime files the program is installed by running the setup program. To install the program follow these steps.

1) Create a temporary directory and extract the files for the hsdemo program.
2) From the Win 95 task bar choose Start, Settings and Control Panel.
3) Double click on Add/Remove Programs.
4) Click on the Install button.
5) Click on the Next button.
6) Click on the Browse button
7) Select the drive, directory and Setup.exe program.
8) Click on the Open button.
9) Click on the Finish button.
10) Follow the set-up program instructions to complete the installation.
11) When the installation is complete the program will be added to the Start Menu, as Chosen Hotspot Viewer.

The default directory for installation is C:\Program Files\Chosen Hotspot Viewer. You may install the program in any directory, however, a demo configuration file is included in the package that references the program to files contained in this directory. If you choose another directory the demo program will work but the images included and hotspot files will not work together. IN OTHER WORDS IT IS BEST TO USE THE DEFAULT INSTALLATION DIRECTORY.
