Hi! I am working on a simulation and I came across this weird spinning will whenever I click outside of a hotspot. It shows even if it is published on Review 360. Any idea how this can be removed? Thanks! (See attached)
That spinner is what's used to indicate where a user clicked in a hotspot question. Otherwise, they can't be sure what they "selected" before clicking the Submit button.
Thanks, Judy. I was wondering if there's a way to disable that function. I am doing my story file from scratch since I am customizing a template for a client but on my previous work (where I used an existing template) , it doesn't have that spinning wheel and functions the same. :(
One way would be to change the Submit option on the Question tab. This sort of removes functionality the submit button from the slide though and the user doesn't have the option to change their mind. I get around this by giving them a couple of tries. To change this you would go to the form view on the question and then select the On Click option from the Submit drop-down. Not sure if this will work for you or not.

I don't know of any way to disable the spinner for standard hotspot questions.
You won't get a spinner if you create a Freeform Pick One question. You can find out more about those here:

Yes, I tried that and it works! Thank you. :)
