Select the image.

Click the expander arrow in the lower right corner
of the Property inspector to see all properties.

In the Map Name field, type a unique name for the
image map.
Note: If you are using multiple image maps
in the same document, make sure each map has a unique name.
-
To define the image map areas, do one of the following:
Select the circle tool and drag the pointer over
the image to create a circular hotspot.
Select the rectangle tool and drag the pointer
over the image to create a rectangular hotspot.
Select the polygon tool and define an irregularly
shaped hotspot by clicking once for each corner point. Click the
arrow tool to close the shape.
-
In the hotspot Property inspector's Link field,
click the folder icon to browse to the file you want opened when
the hotspot is clicked. Alternatively, type the file name. A URL
can also be defined in this area.
-
To set where the linked file opens, type the name
of the window in which the file should open in the Target field.
Alternatively, choose a frame name from the Target pop-up menu.
-
In the Alt field, type the text you want to appear
as alternative text in text-only browsers.
Some browsers display this text as a tooltip when
the user pauses the mouse pointer over the hotspot.
-
Repeat steps 4 through 7 to define additional hotspots
in the image map.
-
When you're finished mapping the image, click a
blank area in the document to change the Property inspector.
