# Image with Hotspots

Turn one editorial photo into a shoppable scene. Place interactive pins on a lifestyle image so shoppers can tap a look and buy the exact products in it — the "shop the look" experience, right on your homepage or collection page.

### How to add

1. In the Theme Editor, click **Add section**
2. Select **Image with Hotspots** and upload a **Desktop image** (and a **Mobile image**)
3. Click **Add block** → **Product hotspot** or **Text hotspot** for each pin
4. Drag each pin into place and **Save**

Everything else — heading, colors, and spacing — is adjusted live in the editor.

### Good to know

* **Two kinds of pins.** A **Product hotspot** links a product and shows its card on tap; a **Text hotspot** drops a text callout (a note, a price, a detail) anywhere on the image.
* **Shop without leaving.** Turn on **Open product in Quick view** so a product pin opens the full product in a pop-up — add to cart without going to the product page.

* **Mobile is placed separately.** Set a **Mobile image** and give each pin its own **mobile position** — the phone crop is different, so pins set for desktop will land in the wrong spot otherwise.

* **Aim the card.** On hover, a pin reveals a small card with the product and its link. Each pin's **Position** (top/bottom, left/center/right) controls where that card sits relative to the dot — so it doesn't run off the edge of the image.

### Best practices

* Use a clean lifestyle or flat-lay shot with breathing room around each product — crowded images make pins hard to tap.
* Desktop looks best with **landscape (3:2)** or **wide (16:9)** images; mobile with **portrait (4:5)** or **square (1:1)**.
* Keep it to a handful of pins — a wall of dots reads as clutter, not curation.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://staylime.com/docs/avante-themes/sections/media/image-with-hotspots.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
