My problem in my hotspot question: If the user clicks anywhere on the screen, he gets the feedback "that was wrong".  He should get that feedback only, when he clicks on the defined wrong spots in the picture - but here the whole screen is kind of active. Is there a wasy to change this?

Don't use the standard hotspot question. Instead, do this: 

  • Add 99%-transparent shapes over the areas you want to be clickable.
    • I suggest you give these shapes a Selected state, so users will see when a shape has been clicked.
  • Convert the slide to a Freeform Pick One question.
  • In Form View, indicate the shapes that should be clickable and which on is correct. 
  • Only areas covered by the designated shapes will be clickable.
