How do I add a pop-out that opens when a viewer clicks?

1. Select Interactions and open the button, hotspot, image or text that viewers will click.
2. Under Content, set Click Action to Open pop-out.
3. In the Choose pop-out list, pick a pop-out. To make a new one, pick New pop-out…, type a name and select Create.
4. Leave Pause Video on to stop the video while the pop-out is open, or turn it off to let the video play behind it.
5. Select Edit pop-out. Mindstamp saves the interaction and opens the Pop-outs page for that pop-out.
6. Use Add to put buttons, hotspots, text and images in the pop-out. Drag them into place on the video.
7. Select Design to add a panel behind the items, a close button, or a dimmed video.
8. Preview the video, click the interaction, and check that the pop-out opens and closes.

• Give an item inside the pop-out the click action Continue to close the pop-out and play the video.
• An item with Close pop-out closes it and leaves the video paused until the viewer presses play.
• The close button from Design closes the pop-out. If the pop-out paused the video, the video plays again.
• A click action that moves the viewer, such as Change Time, Switch Video or Show Card, also closes it. Opening another pop-out replaces the one that is open.

On the Pop-outs page, select Design. Show a panel draws a box behind the items. Choose Full, Left, Right or Custom for its place, then a Background color and a Transition. Show a close button adds an X in the top corner. Dim the video darkens the video behind the pop-out. Select the swatch next to it to change the color.

A new pop-out starts with the panel and the close button on. With all three settings off, the pop-out shows only its items, at their places on the video.

The Pop-outs page lists every pop-out in the video, with its number of items and the number of interactions that open it. Select Rename to change a name. Viewers do not see the name.

Mindstamp does not delete a pop-out that an interaction still opens. Change or delete those interactions first. When you delete a pop-out, its items are deleted too.

To get back to the Pop-outs page, open an interaction that uses Open pop-out and select Edit pop-out. In the editor preview, you can also double-click an item inside an open pop-out.

When you import interactions from another video, an interaction that opens a pop-out shows + pop-out and its number of items. The pop-out and its items come with it. A copy of a video keeps its pop-outs.

• Pop-out: any buttons, text, images and hotspots, placed anywhere on the video and opened by any interaction. A video can have many.
• Magic Menu: one menu of links and resources for the whole video, which viewers open from the player.
• Show Card: a ready-made info, media or product card. It is quick to set up, with fewer layout choices.
