Example plugin external xml file:
NOTES: All tag names must be written in lower case, but attribute names are case independent (bgColor is equal to bgcolor). The size of the image window is set in your hotspot with the width="nnn" and height="nnn" attributes. The plugin is monitoring the hotspot image="..." attribute for a command or a picture id. Setting this to a new picture id will make the plugin show the corresponding picture. If no picture with that id is found, the plugin will look for an already loaded picture with a matching url. And if that is not found, it will finally try to load a picture with that url. If you want your pictures to be loaded in advance, with no delay when you want to show them, then add them to the xml file. Otherwise, just write the url in the image="..." attribute, and it will be loaded on the fly and displayed. External zoom controls can be ordinary hotspots with the onPress and onRelease events set:
