Hi, Hotspots are very useful if you have to move from place to place in a webpage, or if you need to do one thing in one application and then have to go to another application and back. So you set a hotspot so that you can jump immediately to where you were before or close to it before you left the previous app. For example, Imagine I'm reading a text and I come across a word I don't quite understand or wish to check the definition of. I open another application like a dictionary which has lots of fields and elements I need to navigate through, the two important ones for me being the text entry field and the definition field. So I set one hotspot for the entry field and another hotspot for definition field. Now back in my reading, I come across the word which I want to look up so I press the shortcut key for my hotspot and it takes me straight to the text field into which I paste or write the word, and then rather then vo+arrow through various elements of the app, I can jump straight to the definition field to read the description of what I am looking up.
Hope this explains somewhat.
