The default +is to use the `arrow' (non-text) pointer. Other choices are `text' +(or nil), `hand', `vdrag', `hdrag', `modeline', and `hourglass'. + +** The mouse pointer shape over an image can now be controlled by the +:pointer image property. + +** The mouse pointer shape over ordinary text or images may now be +controlled/overriden via the `pointer' text property. + +** Images may now have an associated image map via the :map property. + +An image map is an alist where each element has the format (AREA ID PLIST). +An AREA is specified as either a rectangle, a circle, or a polygon: +A rectangle is a cons (rect . ((x0 . y0) . (x1 . y1))) specifying the +pixel coordinates of the upper left and bottom right corners. +A circle is a cons (circle . ((x0 . y0) . r)) specifying the center +and the radius of the circle; r may be a float or integer. +A polygon is a cons (poly . [x0 y0 x1 y1 ...]) where each pair in the +vector describes one corner in the polygon. + +When the mouse pointer is above a hot-spot area of an image, the +PLIST of that hot-spot is consulted; if it contains a `help-echo' +property it defines a tool-tip for the hot-spot, and if it contains +a `pointer' property, it defines the shape of the mouse cursor when +it is over the hot-spot. See the variable 'void-area-text-pointer' +for possible pointer shapes. + +When you click the mouse when the mouse pointer is over a hot-spot, +an event is composed by combining the ID of the hot-spot with the +mouse event, e.g. [area4 mouse-1] if the hot-spot's ID is `area4'. + ** Mouse event enhancements: *** Mouse clicks on fringes now generates left-fringe or right-fringes
