Image hotspot

The Lapels Image hotspot section: the label "The detail" over the heading "The details that hold." with the last two words in italic, above a photograph of a tailor's hands pinning dark herringbone cloth on a workbench in front of stacked bolts of cloth, with three small round marks set on the cloth, the shears and the folded stack.

An annotated photograph. Each pin is a small mark on the picture with a short label, naming the detail the eye should find: the seam, the button, the selvage.

What it does: Explains how something is made, on the thing itself. A paragraph about a hand-felled seam is abstract. A mark on the seam with two words beside it is not.

Key settings (in the section’s settings):

The section also carries a Section spacing group. Pick a Device of Desktop or Mobile, then set Top and Bottom.

Blocks: up to 10, of three kinds.

BlockWhat it marksSettings
Text pinA detail that is not for sale, such as a seam, a finish or a fabric.Label, Horizontal position, Vertical position
Product pinA product visible in the picture.Product, Horizontal position, Vertical position
Collection pinA whole department the detail belongs to.Collection, Horizontal position, Vertical position

Horizontal position runs from 0 at the left edge to 100 at the right. Vertical position runs from 0 at the top to 100 at the bottom. Both start at the center, so a new pin always appears somewhere visible. You then move it by adjusting the two numbers.

When to use it: Use it on a product page, an About page, or a craft story. Anywhere the making is the argument. When the marks point at pieces of an outfit to be bought, use Shop the look.
